    any usb wi-fi adapter should theoretically work on the ps3. everyone whose tried has done so successfully.

    The PSP dose support WPA-PSK security type A, right?
    Just windering because that is what I use and I know the PSP didn't when it first came out! It is wireless A correct? Hopefuly it is because when the PSP came out wireless G was out, but for some reason they didn't use it!

    why? a is not that commonly used. people will be moving towards n, not a in the future, so if anything, it should have supported wireless n
