Erm, my PS3 has 4 USB ports and a HDMI port (though only one ethernet port) and it is far from being either early or prototype!

(I of course realise perhaps prototype wasn't the word you wanted but just felt like being pedantic )

USB Front x 4, Rear x 2 (USB2.0) HDMI: HDMI out x 2 Ethernet (10BASE-T, 100BASE-TX, 1000BASE-T) x 3 (input x 1 + output x 2)

BTW, prototype is an almost final product to me.....

While you have a point, these extra ports' usefulness do not justify the higher price you'd have to pay for it if they kept them.
