i kave the 60gb (now upgraded to 320gb) so no problem with usb ports although it would have been nice if sony had left a port on the back of the machine (as shown in prototypes) to allow me to leave the pseye plugged in without a cable snakeing around the front. Apart from this i have no problem unplugging the buzz wireless dongle if i need the extra port to plug my psp as well as charge both controllers. Thank god i have a bluetooth keyboard and mouse (apple products, they may be white but work with no problem)

trueth teller you have finaly lost it.warner has now stated it will go blu ray exclusive, blu ray is outselling hddvd on the software front, there is now a huge user base of ps3 owners and if only 10% of these buy blu ray discs thats still a lot. Download movies will only be any good when we have a system fast enough that we dont have to wait for hours before we can view the film and as more people use download the slower the system of downloading will become. Hddvd has no wher to go now that 70% of movie studios support blu ray. Sorry for the bad news but just look at the evidence in front of you, yes there will be a lot of very cheap hddvd players soon as the manufacturers try to ofload them before the crash and if you dont believe me just look back a the price cuts betamax had before it fell from grace. The only thing that matters is the software and if you have the majority of the film companies on your side you will win.
