PlayStation Network Reactivation Delayed

i4u writes: Earlier this week chatter in an IRC network lead to speculation of a third attack on Sony's network. For its part, the company steadfastly promised that at least some services would resume by the end of this week. But now it looks like Sony has given up on that goal. The PSN reactivation has been delayed.

Sony's explanation? They were "unaware" of the "extent" of the attacks on their system.
