Sony Sheds Light on Fully-Networked PlayStation 3: "Sony, which has continued to paint convergence as the grail of the consumer electronics industry, has shed a bit of light on the future PlayStation 3 game console, a fully-networked device that could be capable of delivering as much processing power as a supercomputer by dividing tasks among networked machines ... Reuters Friday reported that a Sony Computer Entertainment (SCE) spokesperson said the company is not thinking about hardware when it comes to the next-generation console. Instead, he said, the ideal solution would involve an operating system common to various home appliances, allowing them to run game programs."
