I'm just wondering why no Blu Ray player yet? Are they blind? I'm willing to bet that a significant number of PS3s were sold solely because it is also a Blu Ray player.

They are going to make it a pricey addon... Count on it.

Its not about advantages, its about protecting their monopoly and extorting cash from the user base
They didnt ban for upgraded hdd's, the banned hacked hardware made to play illegal games.

I thought I read somewhere that they were thinking of a blu add on, but they would have to pay royalties to sony or something.

Unlike the ps3 HDD, which is a stard drive, the 360 hdd was proprietary, and only fit 360's.

If you modded it to accept a regular hdd, you could get banned, because you had to hack the hardware to do so.

Dont hack, you wont get banned.

You missed what I said above, it uses a regular 2.5 sata drive in a proprietary enclosure. It wouldn't be modding if its a direct swap, not to my mind anyway. They're simply greedy fucks

Nintendo 3DS. Handheld, fully 3D, no glasses needed, on par with ps2 graphics.
