Joost comes to PS3

Joost on Sony PlayStation 3 | Joost Labs

It makes it a lot easier to play Joost content on a PlayStation 3 by presenting a simplified interface that allows you to navigate content using the controller. It does not have full EPG navigation, but you can browse our Joost Picks and popular content, and also search for shows. NB: Note that this is a Joost Labs project, so your mileage might vary

We are, for example, aware of the playback occasionally not working.

To use it, go to the Network icon on your PlayStation, open the Internet Browser and press the Start button which will open the Address input field where you enter:
Joost: TV
You can save time by bookmarking it using the Select button.
The keys on the controller have the following functions:
Basic:

Up/Down: Vertically navigate through the menus
Left/Right: Horizontally switch between the main menu, video list, and video info
X: The only button you can use to select menu items

Advanced:

Hold X down: Show the video controls
X + Up: fullscreen
X + Down: Pause
X + Left/Right: Previous/Next show in the video list
O: Exit fullscreen

Been on this for the past hour it's better than Vidzone, doesnt have the same volume of tracks but full screen goodness, decent audio quality as well. Theres Movie trailers, Music, Short Films, and mostly old movies.

Nice Joost and Freeview and Vidzone, the PS3 is picking up quite nicely.
