7AM!! oh shiet...soo early:cry:

I'm torn too. What I see thus far is:

Fat:
-proven reliability
-Linux abilities

Slim:
-small form factor
-supposedly quieter
-bigger HDD
-"low maintenance" finish

I'm gonna wait til the full Slim reviews come out, ie a teardown and full list of what was dropped from the Fat, but thus far I'm leaning slightly towards the Slim if it proves to be as trusty as the Fat

stop crying and go line up!

LOL perhaps see you there

i think the old PS3 still looks better when you stand it up.

i don't really like the look of the new ps3 but hmm...at $299 i'm thinking of buying the new slim ps3 and putting it in my room so I don't have to go all the way downstairs to play it haha. such a hassle to carry that huge thing up and down the stairs and plugging everything in and out.

^ get extra cables and leave them attached?

Right now futureshop selling the fat ps3 for $299 as well, darn can't decide which one I should get.

how did the ppl who brought it early feel screwed over? only the original 20/60GB owners have a full featured PS3

No regrets about buying the 60 gig. I'm not even considering buying the slim because its "cool". I would only buy the slim if I never purchased a ps3. I have a ton of ps2 games so backwards compatability was a big reason why I got the 60 gig.

the slim one has 45mm cell instead of the 60(?) and/or the 90mm cell in the fat ones, which produce less heat.

slim cuz of the higher resale value. Seriously, in 3-4 years, the PS3 wil become obsolete, so why get one that will dimish in value more.

Just like why would u get a pre-facelift model when u can get a facelift model at the same price.

^resell value doesn't matter when the price mark for PS3 hits 299.

At BEST you can get another $10 when you are selling the console 3 years down the road.

^ that's only if you ever plan on selling it. I'd keep mine as a bluray player if nothing else.

true, the main thing the fat has going for it is its proven reliability. though I don't think Sony would botch it up and build a POS now

Sony isnt gonna make another console for atleast 5 years and you wont be able to make that much more off it. I'de say $50 max. Plus I don't plan on selling mine.

Do you guys think the slim will sell out fast? Like the Wii shortage in the past?
