GAME CONSOLE OR HOME APPLIANCE?

Sony has already powered up PlayStation 2 by offering broadband kits that include an Internet navigator, an Ethernet adapter and a 40-gigabyte hard disk drive.
Today, Sony is ready to upgrade the machine further so it can record television shows.

"The game market and the audiovisual market are different, but this product could cover both," Fukunaga said.
With that, users can not only play online games but also store music from CDs and transfer it to their MD players, or save still pictures to enjoy slide shows on the TV monitor screen.

Microsoft has announced plans to launch online game services for its game console Xbox, which comes with a built-in hard drive and an Ethernet port, but the company said it had no plan to give the Xbox recording capability.
