I can get a brand new PS3 60GB for about $20 less than the 80GB with Motostorm. Is it worth it? (I have a huge collection of PS2 games)

If you have a lot of PS2 games you intend on playing, the 60GB would be the model to get your hands since it has PS2 hardware in it. I personally think it's the most well-rounded PS3 version yet.

yes and just like the PSP - you can easily create your own. Like the PSP Themes, dedicated websites for PS3 themes will show up.

The Ratchet and Clank official theme is by far the most polished; it even has custom sounds! The Warhawk one is good too.

does anyone know what the wireless can utilize in the ps3? I currently have a 54mb/s d-link router that is kind of old; and I can't stream video to the ps3; and copying video takes a long time. I was thinking of upgrading to either G+ MIMO or a N router to get higher transfer rates. But will the ps3 even use the extra bandwidth?

I use a Wireless G D-Link router since none of that stuff is in my living room. Download speeds are excellent. PS3 doesnt support Draft N but would be backwards compatible assuming the router is.

b and g networks and every encryption available.

It doesnt support N, but N routers are backwards compatable with b and g already.
