New PS3 80 GB coming in June!?

[Blu-ray Fanatic]

If this thread has been created in the past, I apologize for it. Anyways, does anyone know the exact date of when the newest PS3 80 GB version will be released? I'm going to pre-order it when it comes out because I had to sell my other PS3. Now I'm jumping back on the bandwagon.

The Metal Gear Solid 80GB PS3 will be released on June 12th.

Cool, Thanks. Do you know if this revised version of the 80 GB model will have more features than the other models? If you can provide me a link on it, that would be great.

Details have been sketchy, but there's 2 possibilities.

1) It will be exactly the same 80GB console as before.

2) It will be the previous 40GB console with an 80GB hard drive. The smaller 65nm chip means a cooler, quieter console. But the backward compatibility that was on the previous 80GB is gone.
