Not the final look of Natal

[Update] Microsoft has come back and confirmed that Syed Bilal Tariq is not working for Microsoft, and does not represent them, he is just a vendor. On the below mentioned video, Syed also confirmed that Halo 3 is coming to PC.

PS3 Remote Play lands on Vaio P فايو بي يتحكم في ‘بلاي ستيشن 3‘

The new Sony Vaio P (P11S1E) ultraportable netbook will also be the first portable to bring PS3 Remote Play to it. As long as you own a PS3 and are running v3.30 firmware you can access PS3 content and recorded programs onto your Vaio P. Among many included features, the Vaio P puts a small touchpad to the right of the display, and mouse buttons on the left side which make it easy to use the Vaio P when holding it with two hands. Vaio P also features built-in GPS, digital compass and accelerometer. So now a gentle shake will allow you to ‘flick’ through pictures, while the screen will also auto-rotate when looking to read documents in portrait mode, reminding us of the one and only iPhone!
