Get on the sony website and take advantage of the 350 PS3 with 150 discount by using their credit card. It's a smokin deal and if you have a HD TV, you are set. You still get 5 blueray movies so you get a freakin smoking deal. If I had a high def TV, I'd already have ordered one. Sadly, though, I don't so the extra feature of Blue Ray does me no good at the moment and with a 360 I've got more games than I can play at the moment.

God no, don't do that! Read the fine print before you even think about it. You have to make the purchase before August 31st and it takes up to 30 days to approve the credit card and will likely take a while.

Go back and re-read it. They will provide instant approval and will give you the credit card number and CCN right there on screen. If you start the process (I did, but aborted) you will get the full T&Cs. They tell you to write down the numbers immediately. The numbers can be used ONE TIME, during that session, only in the Sony online store. After that, you have to wait until you get the card in hand. I'm a cheapskate and I'm always looking for a deal. This one is genuine as long as you don't get in over your head and can't make the payments.

 

*Edit* -- One more big reason to buy NOW... The chances of getting a PS3 with 5BR movies for 350 bucks is probably 2 years or more away...  No time like the present.  If I had an HDTV, I'd have already ordered a PS3.  Simple as that.  $350 is just too good to pass up.
