Assuming that you already have a router, it takes about five minutes total to connect your PS3 and setup your PSN account.

Seriously.

Assuming that you don't have a router, it's going to take you the time to go to the store and purchase one, and cost you about $30-70, depending on the router you get (e.g. wired or wireless, the PS3 is wireless b/g compatible).

As for what games are playable online, well, you'll just have to look at the games available.  But the highlights?

  • Resistance: Fall of Man (Really solid all around online functionality
  • Call of Duty 3 (I think the online for CoD3 sucks really bad, but others seem to like it)
  • F.E.A.R. (Just released, the third shooter in my list; haven't played it, so can't vouch for its online)
  • Motorstorm (Hated the demo; heard that the multiplayer is pretty fun, albeit derivative at times, and moderately frustrating)
  • Fight Night Round 3 (Again, heard the multiplayer is rather solid, but the booting to the lobby after rounds ges irritating)

That's what I know of for sure.  I'm not doing all your own homework for you :P but those are the highlights.

Good luck!  Oh, and if you don't have a router, I recommend a Linksys 2.4ghz Wireless G.

 There is not a huge choice at the moment, but you can get...

 A free GTHD mini game

Flow (check this site for review) 

Super rub a dub, great fun! (check this site for review)

Blast factor (check this site for review)

Gripshift (most fun ever - again check this site for review) 

Demos for several PS3 games including Ridge Racer, Resistance, MS, F1, etc

There aren't any classic games yet in the UK, not sure what PS1 games are available in the States?

The ones I know of are...

Resistance fall of man, motorstorm, ridgeracer, blazing angels, need for speed carbon, Full auto 2, fear, fightnight, and call of duty.

Actually it would probably be easier to list what isnt online.

Elder scrolls, and virtua fighter.

also, don't forget about Calling All Cars which will be released May 4th(just a week or two away).  The reviews for it say that the multiplayer is the best part of the game.
