PS3 is one of the best creation of Sony Inc which is not only a game console but also a home entertainment system. PS3 were initially sold in November11, 2006. 62 millions unit have been sold so far since its launch. There are seven models of PS3 so far and the PS3 slim 320GB is the last of the PS3 breed. And then we will all be getting the all new PS4.
PS3 SLIM
PS3 slim was released in September 1, 2009. With the release with the Slim version of the PS3, the demand increased a lot as it is comparability very cheap and economical which included a Blue ray Player which is completely 3D compatible with firmware update. Also the PS3 slim model comes out in 120GB model, 160GB model and a 320 GB model. In addition to that the PS3 slim has user replaceable hard-disk as well. Any user with basic computing skills can easily replace the hard disk and swap a new hard disk according to their desire.
PS3 Slim is not only slimmer but is also 33% smaller, 36% lighter
and consumes 34 % less power than the previous versions (Phat PS3), thanks to the 45nm cell microprocessor . The PS3 slim may not have the glossy black paino finish nor the touch sensative buttons like in the PS3 Phat but that's not really that usable. Some users have also complained about having only 2 USB ports but if you want more USB 2.0 ports, you can always but a USB Hub from the amazon store which only costs like 3$.

PS3 : First Thoughts
PS3 Slim was released on 1st of January on 2009. It is the
successor of the PS3 fat. It is almost same as PS3 in
in term of specification, gaming, blue ray video playback
capability and UI (User Interface) expect for the physical
appearance and power consumption.
The PS3 Slim is most probably the best gaming console out
there in the market and it's price is very fair. Looking at its specs, I can say that it is one of the most economical gadget
made by Sony so far.
The new PS3 Slim doesn't have glossy piano finishing like
the PS3 fat and neither does it have touch sensitive On/Off
or Eject button but who really cares about those unusable
attributes. Also, the new PS3 Slim doesn't pick finger prints,
so the user doesn't need to frequently polish his/her PS3.
The Slim PS3's reduced market price also could be the
removal of such useless attributes. That sure is a benefit for
one who is looking forward for buying a PS3.
Looking at the design, in the front PS3 Slim has got 2 USB
ports along with a hard disk drive indicator. On the top you
have nothing expect a "PS3" over it. Also,you have two
buttons, i.e On/Off Button and the Eject Button. The On/Off
button helps you to turn on and turn off you PS3. Also, if you
press the On/Off button for about 10 seconds, you will
hear a beep sound. Then, you can restore your PS3 to
default settings, update to newer firmware and others
settings. You can use this function when you face
problem with your new PS3 Slim. You can now be relieved even if your system crashes because you can restore it easily.
Multimedia
PS3 sure is a great gaming console but if look closely enough,its much more In fact, it is a home entertainment system system. It is widely used for gaming, playing music, videos and pictures. Also, thanks to its dedicated blue-ray player which plays stunning 1080p HD videos. What more could we ask for?Further, don't forget that the PS3 slim is Internet ready out of the box with its own internal WiFi integration. But I have to admit that the PS3's Web Browser is among the worst web browser that I have ever experienced.
Specification
The PS3 Slim uses IBM cell processor which was solely created by Sony inversting millions of dollar and who knows how much more.
The PS3 Slim has 256MB of RAM and hard-dask varying in capacity from 120 GB, 160 GB, 250 GB and 320 GB. Talking about the GPU, PS3 uses RSX GPU which is a Reality Synthesizer GPU. It was made in association with the Nvidia Incorporation. It's also said that the GPU used in the PS3 Slim is the modified and developed version of Nvidia GeForce 7800. I am telling you guys that the new PS3 slim does have some serious gaming power.
Games are extremely stunning a HD Television. Even the PSN (Play Station Network) has developed a lot over the years. Online gaming a great as well. Even the Play-station store has good collection of games now.
According to Sony, to achieve the smaller size, the internal structure (architecture) of the PS3 ha to be completely redesigned from power supply to the cooling mechanism. The PS3 Slim is powered by a new 45nm cell processor which is more power efficient and consumes 34% less power than the PS3 Fat.
The PS3 has got inbuilt Bluetooth 2.0. Also it has internal WiFi which also supports DLNA which enables user to share picture and videos with a DLNA enabled device wirelessly. PS3 Slim also supports Bravia Sync through which your PS3 can be controlled by your TV and vice versa.
