£650,000 has been spent on virtual goods by 3.4 million registered Home users, boasts Sony...
Having opened its doors at the end of last year, Home now has 3.4 million registered users according to Sony, with $1 million (£650,000) being spent on virtual goods by users of the service so far.
The electronics giant revealed this first raft of Home stats at its keynote address to the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in Las Vegas, while re-iterating news from last year of 17 million unique users now populating its PlayStation Network, making for a 20% attach rate for Home at this point.
Other titbits of info from the Sony keynote include an installed base of 61.3 million PS3 and PSP owners, as well as some LittleBigPlanet figures as well. Media Molecule's original platformer has now sold 1.3 million units according to Sony, with 300,000 levels being created by users so far.

but people have come to accept the rrod its been happening for years now unlike the yellow light of death thats not because of unreliable parts but due to a firmware update, is this an indication that sony had tried to overclock the ps3 and may have had a stable overclock but releasing a firmware update with the overclock included may have caused the trapped gas in the circuit boards.

Actually we can still complain about the RROD because the xbox has a 54 percent failure rate compared to the PS3's 14.7
OFF Topic: MAG will be pwnage

It's really a low failure rate when compared to Xbox's 45% failure rate in the earlier generations of systems.
A .5% deficiant rate is quite low and seems an acceptable rate for any product. It seems that if Sony can compensate these very few failures with replacement systems ect. then this would be a very small problem.
