Remote Play & Remote Keyboard with PlayStation®3
Two exciting new products that will expand the connectivity between your VAIO and PlayStation®3.
Remote Play with PlayStation®3
Remote Play* with PlayStation®3 (PS3™) is a new software feature for compatible VAIO models**. It allows your VAIO to remotely access and playback certain content*** on your PS3™ from virtually anywhere in the world.

Once the remote play connection is established between the VAIO and the PS3™, the PS3’s XrossMediaBar(XMB) menu screen appears on the display of the VAIO giving the VAIO playback control of your PS3™. From here you can playback your photos, music or videos stored on your PS3™ with that content being streamed in real time to the screen of your VAIO.

For Australian customers who have purchased the Play TV Digital TV Tuner accessory for their PS3™ this remote Play software allows you to either watch the TV recordings you have made on your PS3™ or watch Live Australian TV on the display of your VAIO from anywhere in the world – great for the Soccer season if you are travelling!!!
