From G4TV And other sites:
It's features known at this date are this:
-It's coming out Early September.
-It uses 34% less electricity.
-It is 33% smaller.
-It is 36% lighter.
-It has a 120 GB hard drive.
-It has Blu-Ray.
-Comes with a DualShock 3 and has HDMI input of up with 1080p support.
-It's $299! USD.
So, what will you do? Go and buy it? Keep/buy an older PS3? Or wait and see what problems this model has? I mean, comeon, Christmas is still 4 months away...
I'll more than likely be choosing the 3rd option. Waiting and seeing. Gotta be sure about backwards compatibility and all that.
Let the *holy crap it's nearly here!* chants start.

It is roughly 1/3 smaller and lighter than the current PS3 (and uses 1/3 less power! Gcycle!!!). The Slim will come with a 120GB hard drive. Most importantly, it will be the cheapest PS3 to date, with a price of $299 USD. The lower price will also apply to all 80GB models still available.
