My G1 can view YouTube and just NOW PS3 and Wii got this functionality? If they want to give system updates that raise the bar it shouldn't take 2 years for the PS3 and Wii to get this basic function and a full working version of Home. I've played with it, yes it's cool, but they have NOTHING for furniture for your apartment or TVs for the ability to invite friends over to watch movies or your porn collection saved oh-so-conveniently to your PS3's relatively large HD.

For as fast as technology seems to go forward it seems to as quickly stall out.

Er, didn't they already work fine? I swear I've browsed Youtube on a Wii before.

Too bad they limit it to consoles. It would be nice for HTPC as well, but zoom also works ok.
