    I got a Bravia TV a few months ago, and I was wondering if it was possible to use my PS3 to hook up to the internet? I thought they were supposed to talk to each other, and I'd like to view some things on the TV rather than always going through the PS3. Any ideas?

    Thanks!

    You can do certain things on the internet straight from the TV it looks like, but you can't browse the internet from what I can tell.

    You have to be hardlined to a router or wireless bridge from the looks of it (pg13). No mention of using the PS3 (as an internet device) in the manual. Maybe some different Bravia models do more with the PS3 directly. :confused2:

    i know the ps3 itself has a full internet browser as long as you have it connected to the internet and turned on.
    i dont know what you mean by, " I'd like to view some things on the TV rather than always going through the PS3."
    you can hook up wireless keyboards and mouses. the ps3 is basically a computer.
    sounds like you want some other kind of internet connection to the tv, without the ps3.
