ppl that want to get a ps3 should get it while the emotion chip is still implemented in the 60gb model as it is removed from the ps3 with the 80gb and future 60gb models. The emotion chip is used to maintain ps2 compatiblity. Since the hardware is removed in future models, aka next month. It will use software emulation and requires you to constantly update the ps3 to maintain ps2 comptability. Unless ppl don't have ps2 collections, just go ahead and wait for the price drop.
