logitech harmony adapter for ps3

If I had one complaint with Logitech Harmony Remote Controls over the last few years it would its inability to control the Sony PlayStation 3 console thanks to the lack of built-in Bluetooth wireless connectivity. It’s a pain I tell ya – if I want to watch a Blu-ray movie, the Sony PS3 controller needs to be accessible in order for me to control the console.

HOWEVER, it appears this problem is now remedied thanks to the availability of the new Logitech Harmony Adapter for the PlayStation 3 console. Think of this adapter as basically a proxy between a Harmony Universal Remote Control and the Sony PS3 console – receiving and transforming commands from the Harmony remote into Bluetooth wireless commands for the PS3. All I can say is – it’s about time.

Features include:

  • Works with all Logitech Harmony Remotes
  • Supports all 51 PS3 commands
  • Compact low-profile design
  • Guided online setup
  • Always-on wireless link to PS3

The Harmony Adapter for the PS3 is currently available at Amazon.com for $59.99.
