Cool. Does it have any slim-related issues so far? (disc reading error, console overheats, console freezez up, etc)?

I'm from Manchester England, I don't know anything about it. Just the old Joe Pesci accent and if there's a giant Walmart in New Jersey cause I'd like to go to one. Totally innocent ha.

I got mine a few hours ago as well. It's great! I haven't been able to sign into to PSN though, because it's down for maintenance. :(

Yeah me too. I'm anxious to play Batman: AA on my Slim, but can't until PSN is back up. For now, I'm just playing it on my 360. :D Don't ask me why I got both versions of the same game... I just wanted to. :P

Getting mine today, and think it looks better then the fat one. My fat one stopped reading discs since my nephew buggered it up.

The manager at EB Games said they can sell them as soon as they get them.

I don't know if this applies to Gamestop in the US, but in Canada EB Games is taking 60GB and 80GB PS3s and letting you upgrade to a Slim for $49.

They want the old 60gb eh... RIP-OFF. Not only does the slim NOT (allow) linux and bc, it also has less usb ports, no SD or MMC ports.

Jeez. Rip-off.

I don't see it as a rip-off, I just think it's for select people. I've tried to sell my 60GB and no one has offered me anything higher than $300, so if I decide to go with EB it will get me about $300 for my 60GB and save me the aggravation of actually finding someone to buy it. I've used the BC function a total of one time and that was just to see if it worked, and the Linux feature is useless.

The screen at start up is different (It has the new logo), other than that it's exactly the same.

I got my slim a few hours ago and love it, it is my first PS3 and I think I like it better than my 360, and the dead quiet fans are very nice. I also picked up an HDMI cable, inFamous and Metal Gear Solid 4:D
