About frickin' time don't you think? China makes the damned consoles, their people should be able to buy them too. And China won't put up trade barriers because it's not imported goods 
@ Joelcool7, yes I imagine Sony will isolate China's PSN, like they isolate to a certain degree every country's PSN. It's just that China's will be total segregation, unlike other countries. And they'll do all the rest that's needed. PS3 now sells at a small HW profit, so piracy of games localised in Mandarin/Cantonese won't bother them all that much. Didn't seem to put Nintendo off, given that they announced they were going in, even if they ended up failing to do so for other reasons.
Sony also already sells their products in China I imagine (TVs, DVD/Blu-ray, computers, Walkmans...) so it's hardly a new thing for Sony to have to partner up with a Chinese company.
