Supported formats on PS3
There seems to be lots of confusion about what exactly the PS3 supports. Here's the answer:
Notice the Dolby TrueHD logo - Dolby TrueHD is ONLY possible with HDMI 1.3. Which goes to show that the PS3 (at least, the $599 version) is indeed equipped with HDMI 1.3, which can enable lossless digital tracks. So yes, PS3 supports hi-res audio, as well as Super Audio CD.
More information on the decoding ability of the PS3

So in other words the Playstation 3 has higher video and audio then the HD-A1.

Every high definition player is a rip off. The Playstation 3 is by far the best way to get your moneys worth.

Let's wait until it comes out before making that judgment. The PS3 may be a spectacular Blu-ray player -- I have no idea -- but the point is that no one does, really.

his is at the very least somewhat encouraging for the Blu-Ray camp, if it's accurate. As my first foray into HD discs will be the PS3, I hope (perhaps a bit too optimistically) that it is a great BD player.

Definitely looks like it supports HDMI 1.3 which is great. I guess my only concern is its all software decoding by the core processor. However, that may be a complete non issue and the cell processor might do a great job. I'll definitely look forward to the system being tested. Really like that they are at least giving it SACD support, however, you will have to own a HDMI receiver to benefit from any of the advanced sound.

Well that is some good news. At least if I buy a PS3 at launch and my new TV and a new receiver I will have everything I will need.
This will be an expensive year. Glad I am already divorced
