Welcome to day three of Remote Central’s Week of Advanced PlayStation 3 Control! Each day this week we’re bringing you a new review for one of six sophisticated infrared-to-Bluetooth adapters that offer universal remote control owners uncompromising control over their Sony PS3 game console. Whether you use the system as a Blu-ray disc player, a music player, a video streamer or even an actual game system, these advanced converters offer you from-the-couch convenience to turn the PS3 on and off, along with a full complement of 51 different functions.

Once again we have a brand new review for today, with complete coverage of the IR4PS3 version 3. You may remember that the IR4PS3 was the first PS3 IR-to-Bluetooth converter revealed to the public, and that we’ve previously reviewed a prototype unit. Today’s IR4PS3 is significantly different from that early version, and is available in two versions: an economical do-it-yourself kit, or fully assembled.

Stay turned each day this week for the next segment in our review, culminating on Friday with both the final adapter and our conclusion!
