heres a little factoid not stated by Sony:

While the 60 GB PS2 is now $500, it contains 100% backwards compatibility with all PSX and PS2 games. So for example, I can go and play the best fighting game ever whenever I want to on my PS3, despite it coming out for PSX (Tekken 3 btw).

The 80 GB PS2 is $600, leading the consumer to believe all they did was give you 20 GB for $100 more (well thats a little overpriced). But what they didn't say is now they removed the backwards compatibilty for some games, making it only work with about 60% of all PSX and PS2 games.

So if you were to buy any PS3, I would go and by that 60 GB one, since the 80 GB basically removes features and gives you 20 GB for $100 more.
