	It looks like Sony is continuing its implementation of Wii-like technology in the Playstation 3. Now, in addition to the tilt motion sensing, Sony is has filed a patent for technology which will allow users to point to places on the screen using a Wiimote-like pointing device. The patent even includes a description of "A receiver portion includ[ing] one or more sensor units located in or near the target area." Sounds like a sensor bar to us. You decide. >Link

wow un-original sony at it again.

Copying the Wii I see.

Everyone copies from everyone else. I would love for Sony to have copied XBL. If it were an exact replica, I would have been happy. Sue Sony for adding additional elements for gameplay. Sucks for us gamers who like variety and options.

And by "it" of course I mean their online setup.

So you're telling me I can buy a Wii for $250 or a Sonii for $600+The cost of the sensor bar and the motion sensing remote? Score, I totally have that kind of money laying around! :D
