i've been watching youtube videos about home, and people have been leaving comments like "it sucks I already have a ps3" I was curious if home is not a downloadable software, but something that comes on new systems. and if it is software that only comes on new ps3's, when is the date that I can buy a ps3?

No, you download it from the PS Store when it comes out next month. People are talking about the (not so) public Beta test.

No you will have to buy HDMI cables monoprice.com is a good place to get cheap HDMI cables. Wal-mart if you want it instantly I got mine for 30 bucks

No, you have to buy the HDMI cables seperately. And definitely get the 80 gig. It'll give you much more room, more USB ports, and I believe the copy of motorstorm comes with it.

I believe you are able to format the HDD. I think its FAT32 what the HDD needs to be for the PS3 to recognise it

Its darn near impossible to screw up. 2 little screws and a cable. The ps3 instruction manual even shows you how to change it out.

40 unless you plan on using it for media storage and PS2 games.
