the better thing to do is to buy the original version of ps3 when "mini" ps3 come out....
from psx to psONE.....ps2 to the "slim" ps2....the "mini" version of sony's system always have more problem and easier to breakdown.....
I have heard enough stories about the 7000X series ps2 having problems all over.....I would not trust the slim down version of sony's console anymore.....
