Default PS3 Preorders???

Just noticed that there seems to be loads of places opening up their PS3 preorders now. Has anyone preordered or do you think there will be plenty at launch - seeing as its nearly £500 with a game!

I'm tempted to order at Amazon or somewhere that doesn't take the full amount before shipping it... I have an Xbox 360 but the noise when playing DVD's irritates the hell out of me so a quiet Blueray job sounds quite good!

Still its a lot of cash really....

Richard

Cheaper to buy the HD-DVD add-on for the 360 surely?

Or are you just justifying it to yourself

Alternatively, just get a standalone player for around £300 and it'll be quieter than either console

Put down my deposit yesterday, just in case I don't get a free one from day one

Me justifying it to myself never.....

I do love the 360 but have heard reports that its still loud with the HD add on.... Also mine is a day one version (only had to go back once!) so I don't know how confident I am that it will last *that* much longer.....

I suppose I could pre-order 2 and if things turn out like X360/Wii I might get mine for free by selling one on eBay!

(plus a shiney new gadget wouldn't be the worst thing in the world)

I'll only be smug if I do get a free one, but then I wouldn't give you my other one because you'd be thinking I was a smug **** ;D
