Yes. PS, PS2, PS3, CD, DVD, Blu-Ray, Internet. I heard that some PS2 games don't play, but yes, they're fixing it. Nice that it has wireless networking on it as well.

Okay that solves that question, are they using the same memory media for save games as the PS1/PS2? (Memory cards) or are they using the PS3's HDD?

Hrm, looks like sometime in '07 I'll have a perfectly good PS2 to sell :P

The save games are stored to the HDD. If you have old PS1/2 memory cards, you can buy a $20 adapter that'll allow you to copy the entire memory card to the HDD (but not the other way--yet).

btw.. with the recent release of yellow dog linux for the PS3, hackers have already managed to rip blueray disks to the PS3's HDD
