if you want to jump right in and use CFW you need a ps3 with firmware of 3.55 or less...which are hard to find now...do not buy a new slim model if you want to use cfw as there is no way as of yet to downgrade them....if you get a ps3 with firmware higher than 3.55 you have to use a hardware flasher (like E3/prog) to downgrade....that about covers it i think.
