Interesting news from New Zealand where a Sony exec has been quoted as saying that they hope to be able to provide a DVB-T tuner for use with Playstation 3 consoles by the time the terrestrial Freeview service launches there. That service is due to launch early in 2008, so this is something that could become available quite soon. The PS3 is already USB enabled, so one can presume that it wouldn't be so difficult to add the necessary software to the box. The question is, how long before we see this in Europe too?
(It's worth noting that DVB-T in New Zealand will be launched using MPEG-4 video coding from the start.)
