he didn't see the bigger slot for the blu-ray disks I guess.

But i suppose if this was the real hardware they have more than one Memory Card slot... just one is completely ridiculous.

Looks more like a Sony projector, with a little photoshopping to it.

Yep, I'm pretty sure it's a photoshopped LCD projector.
The reflections in the thing are supposed to make it look more realistic, but if you watch it, there's no reflection of the guy+camera that took the picture.

Fake.

The UMD has been specially developed by Sony for just this console. However, unlike the Minidisc, which was also a proprietary Sony-developed format, it will not be commercially available as empty discs, in order to avoid piracy.

Blu-ray Disc is a next-generation optical disc format jointly developed by a group of leading consumer electronics and PC companies called the Blu-ray Disc Association (BDA), which succeeds the Blu-ray Disc Founders (BDF). Because it uses blue lasers, which have shorter wavelengths than traditional red lasers, it can store substantially more data in the same amount of physical space as previous technologies such as DVD and CD.

The more I study that picture it looks like the SONY, Memory Stick, PS, ect... logos were put on using photoshop. If you look close it looks pixalated around the logos.
