Swapping out hard drives doesn't void your warranty, and an external hard drive works as long as it has been formatted in FAT32.

I wish Sony would have a lower priced 40 gig bundle though. I don't care about backwards compatibility, and plan to install a larger hard drive, but MGS4, a DS3 controller and the PS3 for $500 is a pretty good deal.

why not go for the 20 gig then?

[Sure-Oz]

I'll believe that bundle when i see it, considering MGS4 has had a ton of different release dates

I probably would if Sony still produced them. Now, I figure a 40 gig PS3, MGS4 and a DS3 would run me $515, so I might as well wait for the 80 gig bundle.

The bundle is definitely real (pic) (talk about press release here), the release date just hasn't been confirmed in a press release.

However, word from the Destination Playstation retailer conference today is that MGS4 is dropping June 12th. I'd guess that the bundle would at worst drop the same month, but I'd assume day and date with MGS4's release.

Can't wait to play that game then, exciting times ahead...

I assume the 80gig ps3 is the same as the current ones that are not being sold anymore, except retailers that have bundle packs.
