I created a media sever on my LAN. I had pictures, music etc. Anyways I turn on my PS3 which was connected though wifi and it automatically found that sever and all my music files and pictures with no configuration needed. I thought that was pretty sweet:)

They do but it a pain to set up. The PS3 did for me without a lift on my finger.

Well if you go to the information bar option and press triangle. Then select do no display. I think that caused alot of people's ps3 to freeze.

It's just as easy to set up as ps3 and unlike the ps3 it will play protected music. Not only that but you can stream music while playing a game (custom sound tracks) and play online.

Can you explain the created it on the LAN portion? I have media sharing setup through WMP11 - and can share from my computer - that is what you are saying right?

Just making sure

Its even cooler if you have a psp bc then you can assess that stuff remotely anywhere w/ wifi. I haven't really done it bc i can't connect to campus wifi with my psp yet (damn wifi security)
