Sony Computer Entertainment is teaming up with America Online to offer high-speed internet access.
Sony is hoping the deal will give its PlayStation 2 an edge over rival consoles by Microsoft and Nintendo.
Using accessories expected to be available in December, millions of PlayStation 2 owners will be able to chat electronically and exchange instant messages and e-mails with other players.
"If you are playing a strategy or mission-based game and you need to talk strategy with your teammates, you can do that," said Kazuo Hirai, president of Sony Computer Entertainment America, based in Foster City, California.
AOL and Sony executives said the companies will host demonstrations of their joint technology this week during the Electronic Entertainment Expo in Los Angeles. Neither company would disclose the financial arrangements.
In doing so, they hope to trump Microsoft and Nintendo, which will offer their own game boxes in time for the holidays.

So, the good news is... it's coming. The (potntially) bad news is... it's AOL.

That is a bad thing.
I found AOL to be one of the worst browsers around.
You cant play a number of online games with AOL, specifically Counterstrike.
