what can a PS3 do?

If you've not done it yet, set yourself up some international accounts so that you can download stuff from the different Stores.

If you want to be able to buy stuff you'll need to set up a online card account and the easiest at the moment is to do it via Entropay. All teh details are in the sticky for setting up accounts, ignore the wirecard instructions as I need to amend those due to changes in the way addresses are checked.

Also, it'll happily play h264 MKV files with 5.1 audio if you simply re-mux them to a vob file (not a re-encode), which takes 5 to 10 minutes depending on the file size. There's even an automated app to do it now - http://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?t=131782

Hope this helps.

Ooh, thanks for that tip, Prison Break looks lovely in 720p

Think it also plays SACD's.

Oh and don't forget Folding.

Think it also plays SACD's.

The original versions handled it surprisingly well but it was removed in later models.
