Load lynix on it and you can create your own games and have it print files. Basically it splits the drive so when you select ps3 it's a game system blue ray player etc...and when your in lynix it's a high powered computer capable of anything a computer (windows etc...)does but at a much faster rate.
And it can help find a cure for cancer Sony and Standford university teamed up and now almost 35000 ps3 owners are taking part in the Standford folding@home project.
They found the ps3 processor can do in a couple of weeks what a high end retail computer would take a year to do.

Right now, a bunch of PS3 are working together to help find a cure for diseases (Folding@home).
This is just the tip of the iceberg. There will be many things that the PS3 can do that people haven't even tapped into yet. As more and more people learn about the cell processor, they're going to be able to do more and more things.
