@kn: I'll save you the work. Here is the definitive proof that the 80 GB PS3 still contains some PS2 hardware, from Sony themselves!

Q: Does this mean that the PS2 hardware chips have been removed completely and replaced with software-only emulation?

A: The original PS3 used the Emotion Engine/Graphics Synthesizer to emulate PS2 titles. With the latest European specification we have removed the Emotion Engine, retaining the graphics chip.

It's true that the EE was married to the GS for a while, but Sony has divorced them recently!
