March 14, 2006 - Though Sony has been steadfast in sticking with its "Spring 2006" launch timeframe for the PlayStation 3, the morning edition of Japanese business paper Nihon Keizai Shimbun is reporting that the system will see its release pushed back until early November of this year.
Citing problems with finalizing the copy protection scheme for Blu-ray, which the PlayStation 3 will employ as its removable media, Nihon Keizai Shimbun believes that the system will hit store shelves some six months later than expected. According to the paper, the Blu-ray copy protection problem is the only thing holding back the release of the console as its other core parts, including the cutting edge Cell processor, are all on schedule.
A konzol viszont mindíg is konzol marad. A Sony már a PS2-vel tudott volna a PC-vel szembeni reális alternatívár felmutatni. Viszont a végén mégsem igazán állt be a Linux kit mögé. Miközben az igény továbbra is megvan egy a porszívó/videómagno kezelhetõségéi színvonalán álló otthoni számítástecnikai eszköz iránt. Bill Gates is valami ilyesmirõl álmodozik mostanában.
