2 less USB ports, no memory card slots, no backward compatibility and no sacd support for 40gb vs. 80gb.
I'm at just over a month on waiting for my 5 free.

It upconverts DVDs to 1080p. Also, it took probably 2 months before I got my five blu-ray movies.

The PS3 will make an excellent Blu-ray player. It already has all of the features needed to be 2.0-compliant.

That is, except the actual firmware to make it 2.0.

Just a reminder: the PS3 only upconverts DVDs over HDMI!

But you can still get 5.1 through the optical cable. Just not the new lossless.
