I was playing around with the idea of getting an original PS3 for a sort of all-in-one PS1/PS2/PS3/bluray player system since I know that the first launch PS3s shipped with the PS2's CPU and GPU chip built in as well (the later 80 GB model stripped out the CPU), after doing some reading online, it looks like even the original launch PS3s suffer from 3 frames of input lag due to the PS3 needing to turn the video signal into 480p and doing a bad job of it. Also, overheating.
So yeah, looks like I'll just be sticking with my phat PS2 after all. I'll probably still get a launch PS3 sometime if I can find one for a really good price, but otherwise, my enthusiasm to get one has, uh... diminished.
