Does anyone know if the new Panasonic Viera technology will work on the PS3? Or will it just work on Panasonic machines?

the Viera tech. Supposely the viera tech will allow you to control other electronics with the remote through hdmi.

Nope, it'll only work w/ other panasonic components. Sony and samsung have the same thing on some of their newer products as well. Just get a harmony remote and it's all good... Plus the ps3 remote too....

Yeah, it would be more convenient but the ps3 is ahead of it's time. I think in a few years more and more manufacturers will start using bluetooth for their remotes.
