Default $499 PS3 to have HDMI?

TGS 2006: Live From the Sony Keynote

In the Q&A after the keynote Ken Kutaragi confirmed that both versions of the PS3 will come with an HDMI port, but it's still only confirmed for Japan. Lets hope this includes other territories as well

A question on why HDMI only is in the high level version of the PS3 only. Kutaragi explained that if they put the HDMI in the lower version, they were worried that some would complain about having something they don't want. However, HDMI penetration has come faster than expected, Kutaragi says. He asks if people want HDMI in all models. Everyone in the audience say yes. He then confirms that all models, including the 20 gig version, will have an HDMI port.

From what we can tell, this is only for Japan. You'll have to wait for overseas confirmation to see if this applies in your territory as well.
