Erm i don't understand why people are arguing about PSN account numbers -- it is 77million accounds, 35million of which are master accounts, the rest are sub accounts. Sub accounts are used so parents can set limits on things like spending on PSN, online play, etc. It has been awhile but if a remember correctly atleast at launch you credit card details had to be stored on master accounts, so that limits it to a maximum of 35million accounts using credit cards (and even then some accounts are bound to be duplicates, some won't use credit cards, etc.)

 As for other user data -- it is easy to find out a persons Name, Address, Phone Number, gender. All you need to do is look at sources like the electrol roll or phone books... hell you can get some basic details about people by just calling up people at random... so yea the information's value is mainly that others know your a PSN user and you know PSN was hacked -- so they can do things like phising scams. As for the value of credit card numbers -- they arn't worth much at all without the CVV2 or Eletromagnetic strip/Chip data.

Anyway where is the news and speculation over CHEA-3001A (or whatever the new PS3 hardware was filed under for the FCC)
