I'm on the fence and don't know which one I'm going to get: PS3 or XBOX360 Elite. Can PS3 play video/audio/photo from WMC Vista just like XBox360? I don't think it will be as good as XBox360 but it is even close? Can PS3 play ISO file and some other type, i.e mov, jpeg... Thanks

jpeg photos yes, ISO and mov no. it seems the ps3 can only handle .mpg and .mp4 natively video wise. anything else will need to be streamed and transcoded via media server software such as tversity. personally i wouldnt recommend the ps3 right now for anyone who isnt into blu-ray. while the ps3 is a very versatile device, all of its other features outside of blu-ray movie playback still has a lot of maturing to do. when it does get closer to its potential price will likely be lower as well.
