I'm not sure about the new models, but initially Sony offered 20 Gig and 60 Gig models. The 20 Gig did not include WiFi support (though you could add that later), so be sure to check the specs if WiFi is important. You will want to have your PS3 set up to a network and I recommend hardwiring it.

The advantage of having a bigger hard drive is to use your PS3 as a media center to download all kinds of content, including your photos, videos, games, etc. Since you're primarily interested in BDs, the hard drive isn't too important.

Yes, the PS3 is pretty much the best Blu-ray player out there and definitely the best supported with frequent firmware updates (that's why you'll want it hooked up to the network).
