the ps3 browser is crap compared to a pc browser, but for basic browsing it fits the bill.

ie your stuck on a game, exit out, launch browser and goto gamefaq then go back in game, so it does have its uses i use it everyday

That seems like an annoyance.  Its much easier to just load up the web page up on a laptop or a computer thats nearby, that way you don't have to exit the game.

In my case I have my desktop right next to my 360 so if i get stuck or just want to listen to music while I play Halo 3, I can without any trouble.

but my ps3 is downstairs in living room pc is upstairs in pc room, if im to only do basic browsing, on gamefaqs, checking youtube posting on vgchartz, the ps3 browser however crap its ideal, better to have it than not.

This is it for me, i have a laptop but it's only tiny, my PS3 is usually on all the time from watching TV or something and the PC is in a different room. Being able to skip to the web browser and go through my bookmarked pages to check my favourite websites is really easy. i check vgchartz using it all the time.

Even better, is that i can watch South Park on AllSP.com on my massive 40 inch TV from the comfort from my sofa.

I'd have to agree, PS3 browser is far far from perfect, but its good at what i use it for and if it's a choice about having it or not, i know where i'm sitting - in front of my TV watching All SP through my PS3.
