As far as i understood it the transfer tool new to 3.15 will restore your complete system on the new PS3, including accounts etc. Have not tested it YET as my 60GB launch PS3 is still working great, and upgraded to a 320GB HDD :p
actually your logic is severly flawed. Cause you can NOT use the tool to update your HDD, cause you lack the 2nd PS3 needed for it to work. Contrary to your bold statement Sony made the transfer tool to allow you to migrate your content from one PS3 to a new PS3 keeping all stuff that was locked to the old PS3's HArdware ID.
To upgrade your HDD Sony put in the BACKUP tool, not the transfer tool. As the backup tool WILL rerstore all stuff including protected saves and SingStar so...
@wutter: The backup utility will save ALL content and accounts. As long as it is restored on the same PS3 Hardware you will also keep protected savegames. If you restore it to a different PS3 you will loose all protected Saves and won't be able to access content that is locked to a single PS3-HardwareID like downloaded SingStar songs.
The transfer tool is for migrating Content from an old PS3 to a new one.
Why do some people try and kill any form of competition?
Killing of competition is bad for any market. The results are : higher prices for parts and service, lower quality of the overall product(no competition = no need to be better than others, as there are no others)
I rather see two incompatible Platforms compete with each other and drive the quality up to gain more customers each, then a monopolistic single-console world where innovation and progress is dead beca...

Why is this in the PS3 section ?
Why does the author write "The QPACEs Intel PowerXCell processors"?
Intel ?
I mean seriousely, how could he put the core competitor to IBM there by error. Thats like a report about Adam Smith's "The wealth of Nations" telling people its a book about communism ...
And honestly, Playstation3 as channel is rather farfetched
Actually it was every part as bad, it just lacked the easy available websites to battle it out on.
Nintendo vs. Sega Fanboy wars where EPIC
@Perkel: Sony never reported "Sold to customer", Sony only reports "Sold" to the shareholders, and "sold" for a manufacturer equals "sold to retail" or "shipped"
All 3 Console makers report the SAME number, Microsoft reports "shipped" as in shipped to retail, 'Nintendo reports shipped as in shipped to retail and Sony also reports shipped as in sold to retail. Sony formerly reported "shipped" as in shipped from ...
Sorry, but i am rather underwhelmed... only 15 or so HD rentals with STEREO sound. The buy option is worse: SD downloads at €15 for a low quality SD movie lacking 5.1 sound and all extras that can be bought for 9.99 as Full DVD at any retailer ...
Either the prices and sound quality change A LOT, or i will opt out completely.

Only problem with that idea is, that its a DVBT Receiver. So it only receives OverAir broadcasts. It can NOT receive cable or satellite signals. And the US currently has about 0.000000000001% coverage of overair digital signals.
So you CAN buy the box, but lacking any channels to record i fail to see the value for the US-American market, especially as the digital overair transmit plan has been put on the backburner now because of the financial crisis.
"34 (shipped !), where ? "
Sounds perfectly normal to me considering that all manufacturers sell their goods to the retail chains and report that number as SOLD (to retail) for their financial reports. Which is right as they SOLD the item and got the money for it already. It's pointless for the financial reports whether the retail chains sold all the stock or not. In the long run shipped = sold to customer as retail chains only backorder stuff when the previous shipment...

Something about runes and stuff ?
The only thing i did not like about R2 was the missing online and local(splitscreen) STORY co-op mode. The online co-op is fun for a while, but then it starts getting mighty repetitive as the same 10 or so objectives get triggered time and time again. Also you need at least 3 people to have a realistic chance with most of the co-op missions.

@dark: Netflix IS and WAS an US only service, cause Netflix lacks streaming rights for anywhere on the world except the USA.
No one outside of the USA cares about Netflix cause the service is region locked via IP geotag.
