Buy the $499 60 GB PS3, rip out the hard drive, sell it on Ebay for $50.00(Average on ebay) and then buy a new HDD off of WWW.NEWEGG.COM or WWW.TIGERDIRECT.COM with 160GB of storage for $109 and use what you got for your old 60gb on EBAY for a game. You will end up with more storage. Here is the best answer…..

It seems like the 60GB model will be the main model. Wow, I can't wait to see what comes out on PSN this Thursday! We need other posts on those other news bits (I have to get back to work) I still don’t understand the strategy of the 80GB model, but I’m sure they know what they are doing.

Heres a gif from that trailer, you can see the blurred out controller skipping across the desk when he sets it down. http://i202.photobucket.com/albums/aa302/methane47/Rumbleaxis.gif I don't think they will announce rumble till it's ready to ship though, That debate is going crazy all over the forums.

They blurred out the Sixaxis in some shots (were they worked at the devkits)... Why would they do this if not for an embargo of the new controller... But this is still very speculative!

Not sure if you seen the youtube video of Jack Tretton announcing it, along with the Video and music service coming or not but here it is. BTW no idea how you do links or what this board supports. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VmBCLtgoTR8 Its not a rumor anymore.

That's too soon to do anything like I said. Actually, I take that back, the new bundle is only like 3 weeks way. That’s too soon to do anything like I said.
