"New PS2 stuff"

It's got pictures of the HDD/Broadband adaptor and a keyboard and monitor...hmmmmm I want that monitor....

Yup, pretty much. We can pretty much guarantee that the modem/broadband unit will be £40-ish. No-one knows about the HD price yet, but I can't see it being much above £100.

So you reckon £99 for the HD and £40 for the Net?

Interestingly enough, when news of the HD first started to circulate, there was talk of a "huge" hard drive, at a rumoured/estimated price of £90.

Now, as we know, the drive is 40Gb - which is pretty large. And what do SR have for sale? A 40Gb drive for £99.99.

Sony's crystal ball seems pretty accurate!

From IGN "The Network Adaptor will sell for a MSRP of $39".

Is that the whole net package? $39? That`ll be £40 over here, which is great.

I hope the hard drive isn`t much more.

The Pics look good.....on closer inspection they appear to be like the same kit just released with a desktop version of the Sony Vaio but in a different colour. Clever or what Sony ?????

Yeah, a universal one that will work anywhere!

Yup. It took Sony less than a year to reduce PS2 to half its original size.

Clever sods, arent' they?

Portable PS2 in 2 years, anyone? ;-)

40GB hard drive! My PC only has a 26GB (that's all three drives combined, one 20GB and two 3GB)
Has anybody actually looked inside the Expansion Bay, it's huge. Half of the PS2 is empty!

I'd imagine it'll be much like a PC once it's up and running.

There have been no screenshots or reports of the actual user interface yet though, which is the one thing that has rather disappointed me in the Sont-related E3 reports. Someone must have seen something... after all, they did have them running at the show!

Does anyone know how to use the hard drive/internet?

will it be like the memory cards in the browser or in separate program like windows?
