"the PSX-2 lets you use shortcut macros, and advanced metadata features that lets you create playlists on the fly, and sort music by specific categories with the press of a button. You can even use URC's MX-6000 touchscreen universal remote to navigate the UI without a TV at all.

The PSX-2 also has an ethernet port, so you can connect to your network and sync your iPod to any local computer without directly tethering it." – Alan Cheslow

"Hoping to overcome the biggest obstacle to BD Live’s mainstream acceptance, Sony Electronics April 22 announced the first Blu-ray Disc player from Sony that can be connected to the Internet via a wireless home network.

The Sony S560 will be available at retail in July at a suggested list price of $349. It also will feature a “quick start” function that promises to play any Blu-ray Disc in six seconds, thus mitigating a common consumer complaint about slow load times.

But the big news is the player’s Wi-Fi capability, which Sony Electronics marketing VP Chris Fawcett said is in response to research that indicates 83% of the nation’s more than 70 million broadband homes now have wireless home networks." – Alan Cheslow
