However you will need to purchase USA Blu-ray movies if you want to watch them. While games are region free (currently, it may depend on the publisher), movies are not.
That's how I understand it anyway, please feel free to correct me. _________________ http://aaiiee.wordpress.com/

Nor are PS1/2 games-you will have to buy NTSC versions. |

Just for information's sake (regarding movies), here are the 3 blu-ray region codes & their territories:
A/1: North America, Central America, South America, Japan, North Korea, South Korea, Taiwan, Hong Kong and Southeast Asia.
B/2: Europe, Greenland, French territories, Middle East, Africa, Australia and New Zealand.
C/3: India, Nepal, Mainland China, Pakistan, Russia, Central and South Asia.
So, a region 1 PS3 can play US & Japanese movies, for example. |

| Movies can be region free too. Of the 8 blu-ray movies I own, only 3 are region locked. |

| Maybe it'll work if you install linux and play the dvd's using VLC player. |
