**There remains, however, one potential deal breaker: It’s not clear if PlayTV can record shows while the PS3 is being used to play games. If that’s the case, then the PS3 could remain confined to being just another games console after all.**

If Sony can't get in-game-dashboard support to work, how the heck are they going to get a DVR working in the background?!
