At this week’s CEATEC show in Tokyo, Sony showed off their web browser for the Playstation 3 console.

Sony Playstation 3 Web Browser

The browser is navigated by moving two analog sticks (one for moving the cursor, the other for scrolling up and down the page). The browser also supports multiple windows, which is often lacking in thin web browser clients. it’s not yet clear how text will be entered, but I’m guessing there is some sort of on-screen keyboard controlled with the joystick.

With both Nintendo and Sony showing web browsers for their consoles, I think it’s only a matter of time before Microsoft builds a version of IE for the Xbox 360.
