A PS3 with all of the functionality that Sony has thrown out there would cost $800 or more. HD DVR? There's $100 in storage space alone (cost, not retail). blu-Ray is already a premium, mandatory device in there. Didn't they also say 4 gigabit ethernet ports? And two HDMI outputs? And support for 7 Bluetooth controllers? And wait, they're backing blu-Ray in a big way but they're also going to offer up HD movie downloads? That would offer direct competion for blu-Ray, and give people a comparison for what blu-Ray really offers. They would have to compress the hell out of the downloadable movies, making them DVD-9 size or smaller for a viable download.

Sony is just throwing stuff against the wall to see what sticks for future add-ons, imo. Launch will see a PS3 with almost none of the capabilities this PSM article is hyping.
