    I saw some shots of them playing with it on another site, the thing seems huge, and evidently weighs a ton, but the menus load quickly, and the load times for games are around psp length. hopefully sony doesn’t have another psp on their hands.

First generation drives are usually slow — remember the first CD-ROM dirves? Add to that the fact that the large disc format of the Blu-ray drive may encourage larger file sizes.
