i had a feeling back in june that sony would add B/C to the PS3 around this time b/c ps2 was 10yrs old, it would of spured up ps3 sales, and there were all these fcc documents of the current new 2500 series ps3 back then, i guess i was wrong, i hope some day they add it its still a popular feature to add, on the PS blog

cant believe its still on the market either

i had alot of good gaming experiences with the ps2 more than any other console and the ps2 slim is really a technical marvel its so tiny and has very little intake and exhaust vents, i had to sell both my ps2 phat and slim back in 2007 to get a ps3 so i no longer have one   but the 60gb PS3 that i bought back then does have B/C

how long will main stream retailers still sell these? i believe till 2012

I think they still will add PS2 B/C.  But, I think they are going to wait till they fully discontinue support for the PS2 HW.  My guess would be some time next fiscal year.  Not sure if it would be SW emulation or maybe a new SKU.  If it's a new SKU, then they probably would give a $50 cut to the current SKU's, while keeping the PS2 B/C model at $299.

Anyway, congrats Sony and PS2.
