The box features a ferociously fast computer chip, the Cell, a high-definition Blu-ray disc player, a hard drive and Web browser. In Sony's view, you'll use the PS3 to play games, watch movies and surf the Web.

Sony envisions PS3 as much more of an entertainment command center than a box to play video games. It features a ferociously fast computer chip, the Cell, a high-definition Blu-ray disc player, a hard drive and Web browser. In Sony's view, you'll use the PS3 to play games, watch movies and surf the Web. You'll be so dazzled by the hi-def images that you'll want to upgrade your...
