Recently, I've preordered myself a PS3 game. Now I think it's a good time for me to purchase a PS3 to play it on! Now, I was going to go with what I assumed to be a normal setup, but then I was told about a sale on a "Slim" version, which seemed like a good deal. But I imagine that in being Slim, it has some corners cut, so there's going to be differences.
What are the actual differences between the different versions of the PS3? And how many are there, anyway?

Actually the only version being produced is the slim version ... you won't find a new -fat- version anymore... (unless someone sells them like diamonds). Anyways. The difference among the new models (slim ones) is based in their hard drive size. The actual versions are 120Gb and 250Gb ... but beware, this month Sony Japan will release new Slim versions in white color with higher high drives ... !!!
