Wouldn't it be much eaiser to release a free ps2 emulator for the PS3? I say free as all 60GB models have this, although they did pay more so maybe £10~20 for an emulator and i'd be happy to buy it, or failing that a download of each game i.e Insert PS2 game machine dectects it and if a download is available it offers a download.

I have just bought a 40gb version updated the software version to 2.35 and installed some updates through gta 4 disc.. Ive had a 360 before this and i am more of a p.c. man than console but i must say that sony have done brilliantly with the operating system for the ps3.. Surely they or a subsidery can release the emulation software either as a download from sony's server or simply the internet itself. I have downloaded and used them before on my p.c. and most have worked fine.. it cannot cost sony anymore to do this as the emulation software is already created and has been implimented on the 60gb version.. changing the format so that it can be executed through the sony OS would be the easy option or making it available to download to a flash drive and plug in. I see no reason to hold it back from playstation consumers.. if this was recitified it would make millions of 40gb customers very happy and in my opinion blow the 360 completly out the water as the hardware itself inside the PS3 surpasses the 360 10 fold!
