I heard that a Big Bang Announcement is on the way in Oct. 12 but they're already beginning the sales of the new SKU I believe Monday or Tuesday. So was there a spoiler early on or are we (US) still getting an announcement this Friday?

I heard that the new 40gb is $399. And the 60gb could come with 2 games and a controller but no price point but in Euros. I wanna get the 40gb but I heard rumors that you can't upgrade the HDD because it is a "fixed model" or something of that matter. Here's my questions:

1)Is it Wifi?

2)BC?

3)Card Reader? What uses were those before for consumers?

4)I heard there are 2 USB slots. Is that new? And what uses come from that other than maybe charging your controller?

Don't know much about the tech stuff so I will appreciate your answers and plz don't flame. I am trying tofigure this stuff out so I can get one,finally, next Saturday.

There is BC. It's just its using emulation instead of the EE chip so you can't play as many games, but there's still BC.

Seriously? Screw that then, I'm getting the 60GB. Or maybe I should wait until Sony releases a white PS3.
