I think the added value of the new 80GB versus the 40GB is minimal. The new 80GB cannot play PS1 or PS2 games and it has no compatibility for SACD or DVD-A. So all we have is 40GB extra hard drive space, which is nearly dirt cheap nowadays anyway. Is Sony including a decent game with this new 80GB or something they can lose money on?
