Found this on wikipedia. Looks like eight not nine. my bad.
Wow thanks for the info! Like I said the PS3 is a beautiful machine and has no limit on what it can do. I'm thinking about how great online gaming would be with this thing with all of the hardware, however a few things come to mind...
1.) Cheating, I've read, is so rampant on Resistance that people have completely stopped playing all together. Apparently some people have found ways to go beyond the outside of the map, not new of course, and sit and snipe when players re-spawn.
2.) Some people cannot get into the Playstation network because the PS3 (early models) cannot recognize the DNS servers. People have to go in manually and change the settings, with no help from Sony but rather other players who know computers, and give DETAIL instructions on how to connect. One story had a guy who's son played 360 online all the time but he couldn't hook up the PS3 to play to save his life. He had to wait until he went to a website and someone finally helped him. Took him 2 or 3 weeks he said of having this thing sit there and do nothing.
3.) I'm not good enough to play Resistance online yet so I haven't tried
Plus there's no headset like the 360...what the heck??
4.) And finally I'm also getting a PSP for b-day and I wanted to connect it to my PS3 to have "remote play." Sounds cool right? Only it's ridiculously difficult to connect the two pieces of hardware (you have to set up your PS3 as an access point and hope and pray that you're PSP can see it. Plus you can only do it with the 60GB version b/c it comes with wifi internally) and you can't actually "play" anything in remote play. It's more like a photo and movie access point/external hdd. You can't play games remotely. Ugh what a mess and a huge let down.
