PS4 Has Cleared The FCC

Last week developer kits for Sony’s PlayStation 4 had been cleared for use in the U.S. by the FCC (although developers had altered versions for months – even years), and now the consumer product has been given clearance.

Of note in the clearance are details like the console’s  ”max clock frequency” of 2.75GHz, and the fact that it will be manufactured in China and Japan, made known by the ”Made in China” and “Made in Japan” labels found on the hardware.

Also, it seems Sony’s quite ahead of the game here as compared to PS3, as said console was cleared in September of 2006 for sale in the U.S., and we’re still in the month of July. Sony then proceeded to launch the PS3 in November of 2006. Could this mean that PS4 will launch in October?

One can only dream.
