    PLUS7 Launched on PlayStation Network

    Sony have partnered with Yahoo7 Australia to deliver the on-demand channel PLUS7, to the delight of the VCR and TIVO-less everywhere.

    PLUS7 is the first offering from Australia's commercial stations to grace the PlayStation Network, and is available free to all members right now. PLUS7 represents the local networks' increasing interest in and support of IPTV in addition to increased digital broadcast services.

    The new channel complements the existing iView and Vidzone services, which bring ABC programming and non stop music video respectively directly to your big black box, continuing Sony's quest to make every other device in your lounge room totally redundant.

    The service launches in the PS3's web browser and doesn't seem to differ too greatly from the online version, but HD output of web content straight to your fancy pants TV is pretty damn convenient.

    That is what I am guessing... I think I might have jumped the gun.
    Because it says that there is a TV icon via XrossMediaBar (XMB).
    And, I don't see any TV icon on my XMB screen.
    Here are the steps they say to follow:

    How do I use ABC iView on my Playstation 3?
    IView is accessible via the XrossMediaBar (XMB) on your PS3. Just ensure that you have completed the below steps in order to access it:-

    Connect to the PlayStationNetwork. Then make sure that you have the latest System Software installed. Then sign in to PlayStation Network on your PS3. Navigate to the 'TV' and 'iView' icons that should now appear on your XMB. Select the iView icon and press 'X' to begin the service.

    Alternatively, simply browse to abc.net.au/iview via the PS3 web browser address field.

    PS3 Navigation: iView also supports navigation and playback control with the wireless PS3 controller. Use the left joystick on your PS3 controller to move the cursor and press the X button to select programs. Alternatively you can connect a USB mouse to the PS3 and use to move the cursor. For more troubleshooting tips on PS3 visit the iView message board.


    Here's the link:ABC iView FAQ

    So if you can figure it out, please let me know....
