Mine does not have the extra vents like in the pic where the front usb ports are on mine and the left hand side under the main vents. Does anyone elses have these vents or is it only the new 80g coming out.

Sony stated that they will phase out the 40gb model in favour of an increase in storage space and a 'lively' sixaxis controller...all at the same price as the current 40gb model.

So I expect a repeat of the immediate phase out of the 60gb model they did last year to happen a year afer that event! (September/October)
