Does anyone know if the PS Eye will be bluetooth enabled, or will it be wired, becuase wireless would really help me convinve my girlfriend to get me one. Also I was thinking of getting one of them Go! Cams for my PSP. Do you think Sony will make it so you can *** it into your PS3 controller sometime in the future to, cos that might be cool

i doubt it will be wireless becuase it would need to get its power from somewhere and i doubt they will use batteries in a webcam but could do , and also that is  a great idea about puting the psp cam into the ps3 controler never thought of that , maybe thats something sony should be thinking about

Well you know, it could be a rechargeable Eye? I agree Sony should take lessons from this forum :)

Its not wireless, do you realise how much 640x460x60 fps requires uncompressed WITH 4 channel 44100 audio? More than wifi can handle.

It's probably USB.  Even if it was bluetooth, it would still need to be powered.  So, you'd have to plug it in for power anyway.  Unless of course you wanted to be changed batteries all the time.

Tis a shame, I wouldn't have minded rechrging it, are there any USB ports on the back of the ps3? I'd check but it;s quite an effort to pull the thing out

well in the eye of jugdement videos, you can see a cord attached to the camera likely usb. But what i would like to see is a clip on the camera stand, ps2's camera always moved around on me so a clip would help. Also playing eyetop play if a young kid was playing with an adult you always had to adjust the height. so some sort of player tracking system for multiple players would be cool.

One thing that would be awesome is if you could set it to turn on your ps3 if you sit down infront of it, movement activation styleee

Checkout Penny Arcade today, they have a comic on the Eye and a show entry which is classic, they went much crazy over EoJ.

That thing looks like it takes up alot of realty wherever you place it.

I'm not purchasing it #1 Because none of the games I play would use it(also why I don't have the retarded 360 webcam) and #2 cause it would take up an entire endtable in my living room methinks.

Do you guys have the room for it?

It is webcam sized, it will take up less space than an ashtray :?

I realize the camera dealy itself is, but the 9 fields for EoJ and stuff like that y'know?

To actually play a game you'll have to clear an area.

Many people will buy it simply to skip having to buy a headset. You never have to sync it, its always on and of course you dont need to have it stuck on your ear.
