News: Confirmed for November in Japan. In America... we still really don't know.
On the eve of a big PS3 announcement in Japan comes official word from via the Nihon Keizai Shimbun newspaper: the PlayStation 3 has been delayed until November.
In the article Sony pinned the delay on problems with finalizing the copy protection scheme of the Blu-Ray drive.
It's also important to note that the November date is currently only confirmed for Japan. If Sony follows the release schedule of their previous consoles we in America should see the PS3 sometime in Early 2007.
Now, I hate to say I told you so, but we'll have more on the PS3 delay as it develops.
