Hello, I’m Troy Petersen. I’m a product marketing manager for gaming products, based in Logitech’s Fremont, Calif. office. I’m a huge sports nut and former sports journalist, and love playing golf (badly) and softball — though my new “hobby” of being a dad is my most rewarding activity. I’ve been with Logitech for more than six years and involved in tech for a decade.

I love my PLAYSTATION®3, especially the fantastic HD experience when watching Blu-ray movies. I’m also a huge fan of our Harmony remotes.

Yesterday, an Engadget reporter did some digging on an FCC Web site and uncovered our plans to manufacture an adapter that allows our Harmony remotes to control the PS3. We can’t give you all the details just yet, but we can say that this adapter will, when used with any Harmony remote, give you complete control of your movie-watching experience on PS3. It will also turn the PS3 on and off – and allow you to set up your Harmony activities to include the PS3 just as you would any other device. You also won’t need to dedicate any of your valuable USB ports to get that control.

We’ll have more information very soon, including pricing and availability. We hope you can wait just a little bit longer!
I guess it will link to the PS3 via blutooth and have an IR sensor for the harmony.
 
Aye, a guy did make and sell his own devices that were like that in the states. Basically a bluetooth device with a IR receiver built in, would translate the IR signals over to bluetooth for the PS3

IR4PS3, I ordered one last week and arrived yesterday. It works great now my Harmony One can control everything :cool:
 
Ooooh been considering getting one of these learning remotes - this might swing it for me. Will the adapter be free or chargeable?

ps3ud0 :cool:
 
No chance of it being free. Great Idea though :) I've got a sony universal remote that controls everything EXCEPT my PS3. Would be awesome to have it control that too.

ut how would I teach the remote the controls it needs to learn?

Cheers,
