Yet another PS3 class action lawsuit

Submitted by Brigitte Lenis

ING reports that Sony has been hit with another class action lawsuits after having disabled the "Other OS" feature from the non-slim PlayStation 3 models on April 1st 2010. A fourth class action was reportedly filed on May 6th 2010 in California, with a claim alleging that Sony "unlawfully forced" PS3 owners to choose between features that were initially advertised, as many utilized the feature to install the Linux Operating System. Apparently, the feature was initially removed via an "optional" firmware update, but users who chose to not install it were locked out of other basic system functions. The suit reportedly seeks restitution, injunction relief and other damages.
