Nevermind that, the source that was quoted do not have the stated information, so it's probably a hoax.

The add-on, called the 'Playboy' by insiders, connects into the console's Memory Stick Duo port. Once installed, it will enable users to download and install a number of Gameboy titles onto the device, via a unique service that Sony will provide.
do you think that's real?

what could the MS slot provide? do you think it will be a modified MS with bootable program that will connect you to Sony's website, you'll be able to download content (pay somehow), the content will be saved on the "special" MS, and you will be playing games off the MS?
or it should be more to it?

...if the MS-slot can be used in other means (connect other devices) could be useful, if not and is simply a MS-duo stick the architecture of the software on it may be valuable for homebrew execution on 1.5

ok... didn't know if it's a rumour or not... that's why I asked if it were in the first place.
