After downloading the PS3 update and messing around with some of the new features, I found it strange that I was unable to remote any movies (dvd, haven't checked bluray yet) will not show up on the PSP.

As for gaming, non existant at the moment. No games utilize the feature remotley. At least when it comes to playing them directley on the PSP.

Those are two things that Im sure will be ironed out, possibly by the next update release (you never know). The possiblilties are pretty much endles with the remote feature. As of now you can stream music, surf the web (not that you cant on psp anyway).

Something else that I found really strange is that you cannot control Folding@home via remote. Nor can you log into the system over the wifi network while the PS3 is off. I'm hoping the you can do this at some point. For example, PS3 is in Toronto but your in NY, would like to connect remotley to your PS3 from NY. There should be a command that automatically switches on the PS3 and verifies your remote registration.

Since I'm writing this from my PS3, I guess it would be nice to mention that the amount of letters you can fit in a text box should be increased...(?)

I have yet to check any files from an external HDD as of yet but it's safe to say the remote feature is going to be a HUGE advantage. A couple of minor improvements should be made...I'm already sold on this one. Love it!

Yup, it's always done that guv. It'll probably never do DVDs and BDs because of the DRM issues.

So.. Take your DVD, encode it as an MP4, then you can PSP it.

Yea I know...too complicated for the average PS3 user. It's too much trouble. Especially when you have a shil load of flix. This can and should be addressed.
