cards, ETC.? First off, i am considering investing in a PS3. i am probably going for a referbished 60gig so i can play ps2 games in addition to the games availible for ps3 and ps1.
Now, some of the main reasons i am choosing this system is because i feel it is the best "entertainment" console, not because it's the best "gaming" console.
so here are the things i would like to do. For one, i want to be able to use bluetooth to communicate between my PC + android smart phone + PS3. though, after trying to do so, the PS3 wasn't able to pick up any of my (nor my friends) bluetooth signals from our smart phones. So this is VERY sad and dissapointing. Hopefully someone can clarify a mistake, and point me in the proper direction and fix this problem, but if PS3's are only able to connect to "headsets"...well, it's kind of a sad joke considering it's capabilites.
Next, i want to be able to use my mobile phone as a transport hub for music, and blue ray discs to the PS3 which i have stored on my PC. I tried plugging my phone in directly via micro-USB to USB cable, but nope, it was unable to read anything (movies, music, NOTHING) saved on my 16gig micro SD card.. once i am able to i am going to try my micro SD to USB converter to see if i can transfer some blue ray discs over, but i am not so confident that it will work as of now. as previously stated i am hoping i have made a huge mistake and that someone will be able to point me in the right direction. (also, i realize i could possibly use a USB-USB cable to try and transfer files from my PC to the PS3, but sadly i dont have such a cable on hand, though..consider what has happened so far, im doubting it will even work..)
well, thanks in advance if you are able to be of some help. gl.
ok, well, that's unfortunate about the bluetooth situation.. streaming form the PC would be useful, but im looking to store many of my blue ray disks on the ps3 to clear up some extra room on my pc, and i would prefer to have my PC freed up so i wont have to keep it in the same room as my ps3-HDTV if i want to watch a movie.
After further messing around, i was able to get my roommates ps3 to show all the folder names on my droids SD card, but upon opening them all it said was "There are no titles". (yes, very frustrating)
