Like what? Blocking certain media format types? Limiting hard drive upgrade options? As a current PS3 owner (60GB originally before upgrading to a 500GB drive), I'm curious.

But I will say this, the price drop and the fact that this newer unit runs cooler and uses less power has me considering selling the current one and buying this one. MAN that thing puts out some heat - very noticeable in the summer.

Well they already did state a couple: no BC, no Linux, non user serviceable hard drive. To some, the lack of these features makes it a no-go for them.
