The PS3, despite expectations, is going to be upgradeable after all. Describing the PS3 as a "computer," Phill Harrison recently specified that you can upgrade the 20 gig PS3 to your heart's content. A separateadaptor that will be sold that allows gamers to use memory sticks, SD cards and compact flash cards with the machine. There will be another adaptor to allow wireless controllers and you can install a larger hard drive if you'd like. The only thing you don't get with the 20 gig is the ability to upgrade to HDMI.
That slightly mitigates the problems with the $499 PS3. Still, it doesn't make the $499 very attractive... all those upgrades will certainly cost you a hell of a lot more than an extra $100. And when you add in Blu-Ray, the console's practically free!
