  • Abstract
    Just as cell phones will soon deliver TV programming and analog TVs will disappear, the PS3 represents another mutation in the evolution of entertainment: game consoles transformed into media centers. Whatever form they might take in 2009, these entertainment systems will be in a world strangely different from 1967, when consoles, the Internet, Wi-Fi, smart cards, DVDs, digital video recorders, MP3 players, and microprocessors had yet to be invented
