Sony's PSP and PS3 are both defined by their award-winning XMB interface. Sony seems eager to expand the number of products that use the XMB, as seen by its introduction to the Bravia line of televisions. However, a new portable device that uses Cross Media Bar navigation isn't coming from Sony.MobiBLU's D5 video player combines the distinct look of the PSP's XMB and merges it with a clickwheel a la Zune. Do you smell a patent infringement lawsuit coming?

Thats funny, my Zune doesn't have a clickwheel... it has four buttons hidden under a round piece of plastic.

Don't tell me, Apple fanboys here to slag off Sony, right? Why are you here exactly? Because the PSP and PlayStations 1, 2 and 3 were all rip-offs, weren't they..........not!
Didn't Apple rip-off Rio and Creative? Calling another mp3 player an Apple rip-off is like calling someone who covers the song "Faith" a Robbie William's rip-off. Kinda misses the point......

I don't care about any so call rip off or copy, as long as things get better. we shouldn't have to wait on the company that made such a feature to give us what we like.
