Playstation 3 Blue Ray quality - How good is it ?

I was under the impression that the PS# did not do Dolby TrueHD or DTS-HD.

The PS 3 can read and extract the uncompressed codecs, but it doesn't decode them internally. This article explains that the PS 3 can read Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD Master Audio from the disk and converts it to an uncompressed PCM bitstream which is output via HDMI to be processed by an HDMI-equipped pre/pro that can decode the uncompressed PCM bitstream.

That's the beauty of the PS 3's high processing power and Ethernet and wi-fi connections; whenever Sony adds improvements, they can be downloaded to the PS 3 to bring it up to the latest revision level.

Does anyone know if the PS3 streams internet radio?

PS3 will stream internet radio, but development is still in its infancy stage. Due to restrictions w/ flash player playing on PS3, you will only be able to play on very few websites. I am no expert, but I have done a bit of research over time. Just make sure you constantly check for Sony's latest software updates.

I have last years 40 gig PS3. I play BluRay at 1080P on my Sony XBR 60" projection (I really wish Sony had released the 70"!)
The video quality is excellent, in fact it was considerd the best back then, I now understand the new Denons and the like at $2K etc are better, but how much at how much more $?
Now sound, I have Cambridge Audio CD players and server. A very noticeable difference in warmth, richness and even clarity. I guess they had to save money somewhere.

One of the best...if not the best.
