Sony Sued Over PS3 "Other OS" Removal

Stoobalou writes "A Californian Playstation 3 user has filed the first class action lawsuit against Sony over removal of the 'Install Other OS' function from the Playstation 3. The action seeks to redress Sony's 'intentional disablement of the valuable functionalities originally advertised as available with the Sony Playstation 3 video game console.' The suit claims that the disablement breaches the sales contract between Sony and its customers and constitutes 'an unfair and deceptive business practice perpetrated on millions of unsuspecting customers.'"

This is what is wrong with the world

A company that makes improvement after improvement on thier product, over and above the initial specifications by a country mile, then they remove one tiny item used by less than %0.01 of users they get taken to court with a class action????

What a wast of public money tying up a court room.
