Nice PS3 accessories from Sony

Up first is the Blu-Ray Remote Control, nicely priced at $24.99. Now you don't have to look like a dork when trying to impress your friends with the virtues of HD movies.
Keep in mind, this is no average remote. It's Bluetooth based. Meaning you can't use it to control any other IR devices in your home theater set-up. It will only work with the PS3. That is, until manufacturers start using Bluetooth for their remotes.
The other new accessory is bestowed upon us from the big "S" is (are) the PS3 branded component cable(s). This is for all you non-HDMI HD people out there. They look very nice... all metal capped and shiny... and bargain priced at $24.99. When I got my PS3, I initially bought some 3rd party cables for three times as much... they were horrible (interference and crackly audio). Buy the Sony cables (the old PS2 cables work wonderfully too), they look nice and work great.
