Rumors are circulating that Sony will have "a number of significant announcements" to make at the Leipzig Games Convention on the Playstation 3. Word comes from mcvuk.com that Sony Computer Entertainment Europe (SCEE) will be announcing "video-on-demand services and Freeview TV features this side of Christmas" for the PS3.

A recent follow-up by GamesIndustry.biz said a Sony representative replied "We do not comment on rumour and speculation."

Some kind of video on demand service is anticipated since Sony recently upgraded the PS3 from 60GB to 80GB. In the announcement of the 80 GB PS3, Jack Tretton, president and CEO of SCEA stated:
“As we move into the next phase of PS3, it’s important that we continue to evaluate our product line, offering consumers the technology and features that meet their growing needs for new forms of media and the way in which it is delivered,” said . “The introduction of the 80GB PS3, the new pricing for the current 60GB model, the availability of more than 100 new software titles this fiscal year and, finally, the expansion of services for PLAYSTATION Network, will provide even more options for users and will help bring new consumers into the PS3 fold.”

More to come in late August, from Games Convention 2007 (GC 2007).
