PlayStation 3 as Blu-ray player, how does it rate? {Engadget HD}

Jan 2nd 2007 3:21PM The only problem (and it's a big one) is that you can't use your current universal remote... or ANY other universal remote current available! i spent a small fortune on my logic-tech harmony remote, that will work with EVERYTHING except a ps3. Thanks sony...

If you want to rock the consumer electronic boat with bleeding edge technology, at least make it backwards compatible. The thing i hate most is when hardware traps you in a 'this-is-the-future-now' technological dead end.
