the price tag puts me off the ps3
the pvr thing is of use but ive got sky+ and in future sky HD, although the tv tuner is a nice to have, until you get hd freeview you wont get much to record, since the skyguard encryption wont let you feed into your ps3 directly the next best is composite/component into it but that wont be hd
although it IS the cheapest blu ray player on the market, it seems all the blu ray films are appearing on the sky hd film channels anyway since they are only beginning to record in hd.
in time and like has happened before, the ps3 will be slimlined like the ps2 did and bettered so i think i will wait.
