I would pick the 80GB ps3 because they are on sale a lot near christmas time and you can find them for almost the same price as the 60GB. Also the it will proabably be worth more if you try to trade it in. The 40 GB ps3 doesn't play the ps2 games too.

It really all depends on whether or not you want backward compatibility with PS1 and PS2 games.
I think that both the 40GB and 80GB PS3 are good values, but I would choose the 80GB PS3 because it has all of the features included and the backward compatibility.

This question is an often one, so that's my cut & paste answer:
1). 20GB has no chrome trim, no memory card reader and no wi-fi. Not manufactured anymore. Has the best backwards compatibility with PS2 games due to Emotion Engine (PS2's CPU) and Graphics Synthesizer (PS2's GPU) installed.
2). NTSC 60GB has the same backwards compatibility as 20GB version, also has memory card reader and wi-fi. Has a chrome trim.
3). 80GB - extended memory, but reduced backwards compatibility with PS2 games, it has only Graphics Synthesizer (PS2's GPU). Around 80% of PS2 games can be played. Available only in NTSC regions.
4). 40GB - can't play PS2 games at all (all PS2 chips were removed), has 2 USBs instead of 4, no memory card reader, has wi-fi. Avalable in black and white colors. White is on sale only in Japan. Uses 65nm technology (lower power consumption). Improved cooling system.
5). PAL 60GB - reduced backwards compatibility with PS2 games. it has only Graphics Synthesizer (PS2's GPU). Around 80% of PS2 games can be played.

I choose 60GB or 80GB. They both have backwards compatibility and the 80GB sells for just a few quid more.
