"I just don't understand why they don't focus more (read: release) the PS3 instead of this intermediate step with the PSX."
Sony can be as focused as they want on the hardware, but it's nothing without games. The difference in development cycles for PS2 games vs PS games was pretty dramatic and the first generation games always have it the hardest. Some houses started development last year and 'might' be ready for the 2005 release.
I will happily wait for the system with games worth playin. In the mean time, I'm trying not to buy the DirecTV TiVo HD-DVR. As long as I don't see on in the store I shoud be okay.
