you may as well consider the ps3 slim sony's "ReLaunch" of the console, it's been breaking sales charts so badly in japan since then that they're afraid there will be a console shortage for the holidays.
I love mine, I have it hooked up HDMI style to my 46" LCD and running off the media server on my PC so i've got a huge library of on-demand content to watch, as well as about 10 games. The playstation network was a pain in the ass to register my creidt card for but that's just cuz they're super anal and want the extended 4 digit zip code as well on the address or the whole thing falls through, I figured that out the hard way after I got myself locked out for like 48 hours cuz of too many attempts.
Apparently it's more reliable than the 360 consoles, we'll see, I put mine thru heavy use (on 24/7, if it's not playing games, it's playing movies/tv, and if not playing movies/tv, it's playing music with the visualization running)
