Stu - Shawn wrote a review on his a while ago

RANJ - What would be the advantage of buying one now rather than waiting for the offical UK release? Heard sony bans your IP if you log onto a Game server from Europe

i think sony have to worry about people have apparntly dumped the games onto the hard disk opening up plenty of doors
, i cant see them banning the ip, people will just set up proxys to play through

If you get a jap import you can only play jap games and dvd's if you get an american import you can only play american dvd's and american and european games so ideally ide hang on for the uk release if you really want one tbh

Also once its exported out the country you have absolutely no warrenty

March 22, 2006 - In a Q&A session following the platform keynote address at GDC 2006 this morning, Sony Computer Entertainment Worldwide Studios President Phil Harrison confirmed what was heavily demanded for import gamers all over the world, and yet previously thought unthinkable for a major corporation: the PS3 will be region-free for gaming.
