Today Sony has just released a new PS3 update that the 1080i problem that many of you were having. When starting up your PS3 you will notice that there’s a new message for the system firmware update to version 1.30.

the update is intended to fix that problem when playing a 720p game on an older HDTV that can’t display 720p—it drops the rez to 480p instead of playing it at the 1080i your set can display. The PS3 now defaults to 1080i in your resolution hierarchy, apparently fixing the problem.

Unfortunately the update only supports game with the option of 720p and 1080i . Which means that if your game can only support 720p, like Resistance, then this update won’t do any luck.

In the past we have talked about large 22″ monitor screen, but never have we talked about something this big. Here’s a monitor for the computer that’s 8 LCD monitors connected together. We don’t know to much about this item, but I’m sure it would provide some good gaming experiences.

With all the hype about the iPhone, other speculations have been set aside. Today we’ve heard another rumor that Mac is working on a tablet PC with a docking station. We’re almost sure that this could be true because we do know that Mac is talking with Taiwanese manufacturers for the production.

The new tablet will have a touchscreen where you’ll be able to controll your music wirelessly. This new product could be coming in mid 2007, no word on price.
