Have you ever wanted to go to E3, but never been able to make it for one reason or another? Well Sony has you covered, at least for its press conference at 4am AEST tomorrow morning. In one of the most interesting uses for Sony's PlayStation Home so far, people who download the Presentation Podium will be able to stream Sony's E3 2009 press conference live and watch it on their TV. As you're watching the stream, you'll also be able to chat to other Home users about the announcements as they happen.
At this stage it's hard to tell what the quality of the video will be, but given the size and resolution of the placeholder ad on the screen, it looks to be fairly high res. A word of advice though, if you do plan on watching the event via Home, we'd recommend you download the Presentation Podium well ahead of time to avoid being caught up in the mass download, which is bound to happen when people try to download it five minutes before the show is scheduled to start.

Sadly complementary beverages won't be supplied.
