Sony’s back to the two-SKU configuration with PS3 “Slim,” today announcing that the 250GB model of the system previously announced for everywhere but the US will be coming to these shores on November 3. The machine will sell for $349, which is $50 more than the $299, 120GB model. Fifty bucks for an extra 100GB ain’t too bad, considering Microsoft’s hard disk pricing.

dang...good deal :D

Sounds like a good deal. I don't know how fast you could fill up your HDD on a PS3, but I know that for the 360 the 20GB HDD is very small. Too bad they aren't bringing back backward compatibility with the PS2.
