Unfortunately this new model only featured the same specifications as the 40GB one, so you still can't play PS2 games or have the use of a few extra USB ports. However this one comes standard with the new dualshock3 controller, and has a massive 80GBs of memory. I'm going to go in to Game and pre-order mine tomorrow, so that I can make sure I deffinatly get one next friday. =]
Is anyone else getting one?
