I'm not sure it's due at all. I don't think Sony have announced they are releasing it in europe.

OK, so it looks like a 40gb model then. Do the new 40gb post july come with rumble controllers?

I've heard that all 40Gb models post July 2nd come with Dualshock 3's. I could be wrong though so you might want to get someone else to confirm that

I'll check it out, thanks.

you know you can swap it for a larger one right?

No I didn't. So I can buy any 2.5" SATA drive and put it straight in? Is it easy to install?

You need a 2.5" 5400RPM SATA laptop drive.

Nice. Is there a limit to what size hd you can put in?

Oh yeah does the PS3 benefit from having a 16mb cache HD over a 8mb one?

Probably not, plus any possible increase in heat due to the extra cache would be unwanted anyway.

Thanks.
