I'm thinking you're screwed on this one. I found that the Zune SW
(Microsoft MP3 player) does not work either as far as being recognized
by my PS3 but it is recognized, of course, by my 360. I'm guessing
that the media server in Windows Vista is similar to the Zune and not
recognized by the PS3 which would certainly suck. I'm running XP at
this time so someone else with Vista and PS3 would need to verify, but
I'm interested to hear. Personally, I think Sony should figure this
out or else it makes the Xbox 360 more compelling for sharing
wirelessly to any new Windows machines. Microsoft isn't going to go
out of their way to help them.
