Hidden TiVo-Sony connection draws no comment
Ever since we got wind of the digital TV tuner rumor populated by New Zealand's PS3 head marketer, we've been thinking that it was quite possible to turn our PS3's into DVRs.

Dave Karraker, new PR head for Sony, was recently confronted by Gamasutra in a pretty intense interview.
