Sorry Zac, but there's one crucial point you've missed...

fbdev

PS3 linux has no real access to graphics hardware, and the framebuffer access it DOES have is as crappy as can be expected - reports of Myth suggest that not only is HD playback completely impossible, but regular SD playback isn't doable without major jerkiness (making a £425 Playstation 3 inferior to a £50 Xbox as a PVR)

Until Sony stop playing silly buggers & open up real access to the graphics chip (for nv/nouveau, or even possible nvidia-glx) access, there's no hope for anyone using PS3 linux for, well, anything.
