    Pretty nice, a Ps3 with more memory can do a lot more things. I was thinking about getting a Ps3, now I know which one I should look for if i'm going to get it, the one with more memory.

      You know you could upgrade any PS3 currently available with a larger HDD for less money right, and do it easily to boot?

    I can see what's going to happen.

    Sony release this 160GB model. Then Microsoft bring out a 200GB detatchable HDD. Then Sony bring in the 220's and Microsoft get out the 260's. Before we know it it's terabyte HDD's and then we remember that no one has that much music, video's or pictures. And there's never gunna be that much content on the XBL Marketplace/PSN Store.

      And then Sony say that any laptop HDD works on the PS3 and people buy themselves 360Gb for like $120.

    Why can't they settle on 100GB and let people just buy Memory Cards other than bringing out about 10 different PS3's based on Memory...

    Because memory cards are usually made by third party companies.
