sweet, if they fixed the HDMI issues that's a BIG step.
I did run into that HDMI optical bug and it made my resistance crash the first time I stuck it in.
Well I tested a few devices
Ipod still doesn't work proper
Both my Girlfriend's Jabra Headset and My Motorola HS850 bluetooth headset pair correctly. not sure if this was an issue before but wohoo.
Man, With the cell power you'd think Sony wouldve been smart enough to dedicate one thread on that processor to doing universal music playback nomatter where you are, like the Xbox 360. That's probably my biggest multimedia gripe, besides streaming crap from your PC. But then again MS writes the OS for the PC's so it's much easier for them.
