A video game console desgined by Sony launched at the end of 2006.

Along with the Wii & the X-Box it belongs to the seventh generation of video consoles; one of its main feature is the video format of High Quality, the Blue-Ray. It is currently the third console of its generation in term of sales.




Review of the PS3

• The quality of the Blue-Ray is excellent; every use of the Playstation 3, watching movie, play games & surf on the Internet, takes advantage of it. Note also that the sound is of great quality
• Playing online, downloading games, online chat.. the PS3 Internet capabilities are up to the name. Maybe the most advanced of the seventh-generation consoles. However, there is an issue when using Wi-Fi: the PS 3 uses eleven frequencies when connecting to the Web, the main ones being the first, the sixth & the eleventh. It can happen that if you play in an area with much Wi-Fi, those canals tend to overlap, creating interferences.
• The cable-free controllers suffer no defaults; they use the Bluetooth technology and it is possible to play with up to seven of them.

Why is it that so many people – both consumers and manufacturers, are opting to switch over whatever technology the have to Bluetooth technology? Is there some hidden benefit the rest of us don’t know about? Is Bluetooth technology really that great? Are people just being brainwashed by advertising? The answer is that there are lots of reasons to use Bluetooth wireless technology. Some of them are fairly self-evident, such as the fact that it eliminates wires – and along with those wires it eliminates any fear that you’ll accidentally pull your computer off your desk because of one – and some of the reasons aren’t as obvious, such as the ease of use. However, it all boils down to three simple reasons why people are choosing to use Bluetooth technology over all the other ones. Those three reasons are: Bluetooth’s availability, the range of devices that have Bluetooth technology, and the simplicity of using Bluetooth technology.

To start with, Bluetooth is globally available. What does this mean to the average person? This means it won’t be a pain to have to find different pieces of technology that all match up with each other. This means you’ll spend less time looking for something, and more time using it. There are a variety of industries that are using Bluetooth technology, and although their reasoning may have to do with the incredibly low cost, it also has to do with the fact that they won’t be busy worrying about if their devices are able to connect to each other. Being globally available means that you can find Bluetooth technology almost anywhere you looks – almost all manufacturers that deal in wireless technology have switched or are switching to Bluetooth technology. Remember what a pain in the behind it was when everything was either Mac or PC, and you had to worry about if the program would work on your computer? Well, due to the global availability, you don’t have that worry with your wireless networking.

Another reason why people are starting to pay more attention to Bluetooth technology is the fact that it can be found in a wide range of wireless devices - everything from mobile phones to mp3 players to computers. This makes wireless networking easier than it has ever been. For example, if you need to send some files from your computer to your mp3 player, no longer will you need a wire to connect the two if you have Bluetooth technology. You can simply open the respective programs, decide what you want to send, and then send it away. You won’t have to worry about either finding a wire or the wireless technology not being compatible with each other. This is one more reason why more and more people are switching to Bluetooth over the other wireless technologies – the sheer amount of different things you can do with it.

Those are the top three reasons why people are using Bluetooth technology more and more often.
