OMFG! You guys can still get the 60GB Models? They've got card readers & usb ports coming out of the Wazoo, and can play ye olde PS2 games too!
They've been phased out in Oz, in favour of the neutered (no card readers, only 2 USB ports & no PS2 compatability) 40GB version, otherwise I'd have paid the extra $300 (£100) to get it. Wish we could still get the full featured (60GB) models here

What's the resolution of you HD-Ready TV?
I'm guessing you don't have the $4000/ £1300 Surround Sound Audio System with DTS-HD MA and DTS-HD HR, so the above deficiencies probably won't worry you, for the moment.
The only thing might be your Sound System, does it have optical or HDMI? Or does it only have analogue audio?
Remember that the PS3 doesn't have 5.1/7.1 Analogue Audio outputs.

I'd personally get the PS3 - 60GB bundle with 2 games & Bluray movies (you get to pick, right?).
