The layout is fine, although some people think the analog and d-pad should be swapped. For me, it's the grip design that I can't stand. The handles are almost completely worthless, and they have been ever since the analog sticks were haphazardly slapped onto the original PSX controller. I have to grip the DualShock like an owl clutching a mouse.
The boomerang controller probably would have solved that problem, but look where that ended up. As stubborn as they are, I just can't see Sony sticking with this design for another generation. My bet is that they'll go with a wiimote-esque split controller style, but improved like most of the innovations they've lifted from Nintendo have been.
One other little thing -- I haven't used it that much yet, but I like the PS3's analog sticks better than the PS2's. I always thought the DS2's sticks were much too tight.
