i'll be honest: 3rd party accessories don't excite me nearly as much as 1st party ones do...

yea i like the WiFi-Max

WiFi MAX: £29.99/$39.99
This product plugs directly into your internet-connected PC, transforming it into a wireless access point for use with not just your PS3, but every other Wi-Fi supported machine you own, including video game consoles, handhelds, PDAs, and other wireless laptops and computers. Users can now connect all of the above wireless devices to the internet without the need for a wireless router, and at five times the speed of a standard Wi-Fi connection.

but isnt there something like this already available?

Yeah, but much cheaper. For someone who was a bit leery about setting up a wireless router, like myself, this product is a great alternative. Just plug it in and you are good to go.

everything they are offering you can already buy it somewhere else, and maybe cheaper.
There is nothing here specially made for the PS3, maybe it look like the PS3 but that doesn't worht the extra bucks.

External HDD check
Bluetooth headset check
USB headset check
USB keyboard check
WIFI max (router) check

For real, nothing new about all this accesories. Why dont they come with something like this instead:

usb-IR adapter so we can use our Harmony remotes with the PS3
bluetooth keyboard that works with the PS3s internal bluetooth antenna
internal bigger HDD replacement (plug and play)
HD camera for video chat
etc... you name it

Anyway I think you get it
