DivX announced this morning that its technology will soon be alive and well inside your PS3 console. “Our technology will expand the multimedia functionality of PS3 by enabling users to enjoy access to the broad library of content in the DivX digital media format,” said DivX CEO Kevin Hell. I’d like to announce this morning that I’ve never known of someone with the last name "Hell" before now. Heller? Yes. Hell? No.

Developers have been able to access the technology since a November 2nd upgrade of the PS3’s software developer kit so it shouldn’t be too much longer until you’ll be able to access DivX content on your console.
