I'm not sure what to make of your question.  when i purchase a game on psn i can download it to my ps3 and the game is tied to the specific ps3 i download it to.  if the ps3 breaks or whatever i lose that license.  now sony makes it someone okay-ish by giving me 3 licenses (so up to 3 machines) but it is still tied to the machine.  if i have have bad luck and break 3 ps3's - poof - my game purchase is unavailible for me to play on my 4th ps3.  my only option to get around this machine locking is to use the ps3 to ps3 transfer.   this allows me to move all of the licenses from machine A to B deleting all files on A after the move.

so no, i'm not talking about game saves.

But while you can only have 2 PS3's linked to your accounts software at any given time you can manage which two PS3's those are now, but you can only play your purchased games on 2 different PS3's at any given time.  That's been my experience with the new system anyway.
