Default New PS2 version.

The new PSX.... anyone got any good info on it?

Other than it's the reason Sony lowered the price on the PS2.

The new PS2 will have the network adapter built in. It will also have one of those high end outputs built in as well....I can't remember if it's progressive....blah...it's a hookup for the ballas with high end TV's

It's still $199 btw. The ones without these 2 add-ons are sold at $179.

I don't think the new PS2 package includes the HD.

Nope, it'll just be another PS2, but it will have a bit different packaging...details not confirmed yet. It'll definitely have a different model number
