haaaaaa, I almost did... almost. Glad I waited lol and the price of the PS3 is somewhat "ok". I almost bought one when they first came out.. pfft $600 for the PS3.. please. I paid $481 out the door with a game and extended warranty. Plus the warranty is through geek squad(never had an issue or dispute with them when it came to a warranty issue). If the PS3 dies in the next 3 years I just bring it in and get a new one.

I don't play consels anymore, I stick to the PC for my gaming fix. I bet on HD DVD cause at the time no one was buying PS3's where as XBox and the Wii couldn't be kept on the shelves. Its weird how it somehow rebounded.

I have not idea why they keep saying that, the thing cant even bitstream audio codecs. Why would i want the PS3 to decode the file and send it over PCM when I can have my receiver to it. Also just to let you guys know. If you open a Playstation card(credit card from sony) you can get $100 off the PS3 if you use it to buy the PS3, then just cancel it.
