assuming you will buy a PS3...

[partridge]

What will you be aiming to pick up on day 1?

For me:

silver console
second pad (maybe a different colour?)
two games (one for me, one for the kids)
two movies
I'm assuming the PS3 will come with a remote to play movies, but if not I'll get one of them too.
It uses standard HDMI cables(?) so I can get one of those in advance.

All I have to do over the next few months is think of an online game name, and hope I register it before someone else has the same idea!
