herm...want to ask for those using the old 80gb ps3 with 4usb and card reader...r u using all the usb port??since that i've being reading at wiki telling that sony will start shipping the new configuration setup of ps3 80gb with 2usb port without card reader.....( i thought ps3 initially want to market ps3 as the next home computing device?

) but the good news is it will reduce the price...is the card reader will come out as additional accessories?
The "new" 80GB SKU is actually not new. It is basically the current 40GB version, just with a 80GB HDD. The price will remain the same as the 40GB version currently. Think of it as a free upgrade of HDD space for new buyers. Other than that, the differences between the current 40GB version and the new 80GB SKU are mostly minor(technical differences).
If you need more USB ports, you can always go to any computer store and pick up an extra 4-in-1 USB hub with a card reader for less than RM20. So I don't see whats the issue here of having only 2 USB ports and no card readers.
