PS3's online is great.

Never have had any lag what so ever.

Now as for the interface, it's not as clean cut as the 360's dashboard, also the 360 has in-game dashboard while the PS3's media bar menu cannot be used in game at the moment.

There is a rumor that in game XMB will come in a future update.

But anyways as for the online itself it's phenomenial, the interface just needs a bit of tuning.

works well, free, the interface is more professional and sleek looking for psn..

onlne games do not lag

playstation store update is every thursday adding more downloadable content and game demos..

xbox live you can download some TV shows, movies and what not (PSN does not yet have this but a netflix deal is supposed to be in the works- prob not until lait 08 or 09 though)

probably because we'll have many many more games out and they would have fixed all the kinks and greatly improved it.
