From my laptop to my PS3.

now please dont start being technical cos i havent got a clue about anything techified.

Someone mentioned using a media centre but i didnt know what they meant.

Then someone mentioned a memory stick which sounded simpler.

However how do i use a memory stick and how much are they and which one do i need?

Thanks

Memory sticks are usually from £30 to over £100 depending on the size of the stick (in memory, not physical size). And all you do with it is plug it into teh USB port of your PC, and then download what you want to it, the stick should be recognised as an additional removable hard drive, so you'll be able to drag and drop files to it in Windows Explorer with ease.

Hope that wasn't too techy for you.

Too techy...erm, doubt it...

Little sarcy though :suspect:

So go on...richy boy, what stick does he/she need...you seem to be full of information tonight?

The easiest way I guess would be to upload your pics to an online album & then get them onto it that way - thats what we did

firmware upgrade I believe you need to go onto PB & DL from there - save as a Picture & then will give you option to save as a background

I picked up a 1GB Verbatim memory stick for £8 in my local WHSmiths! (it was 75% off the normal price though)
