Cool. I was going to bring on back from NY in las December but because I thought Sony were going to take lawsuites out on people for importing them my mum wasn't going to take that chance, then we thought about FedExing home to my sisters but it might have got damaged on the way over. But I might get one from Miami next month since it's cheaper to get them from the US instead of the UK.

However, companies importing them for resale get caught in the parallel supplying mindfield, as well as the licencing one, and that's where it gets complicated.

Does anyone have any recommendations on an HDMI cable? Is it worth looking for an official Sony one, or is it not worth bothering with that?
EDIT: Just noticed the Sony ones seem to have a version number (1.3 being the latest) - does that make a difference. Short term I'm going to be looking at 720P/1080i but eventually (Sooner rather than later) that's going to become 1080P and I want to make sure I'm ready.
Further EDIT: VGP are listing a 1.3 compatible cable. Been doing some reading over at AV Forums and it seems you need a 1.3 cable for 1080P?Last edited by Number45; 30-01-2007, 09:32.

45: It doesn't seem very likely to me (although as you know, I'm not really an authority on such things) that you need HDMI 1.3 to do 1080p, since you can get 1080p via component. I thought that 1.3 was just a better quality than 1.1/1.2?
Quick question:
Is it possible to just download PS1/PS2 game saves from the interweb (Gamefaqs has billions, if I remember rightly) and use them on the PS3 somehow? Seems like it should be easy, but I can't figure out how to get the saves from a memory stick onto the virtual memory card on the PS3?Last edited by Keith; 30-01-2007, 19:21.
