I'll try to put this in point form:

-Yes, it was confirmed "region-free"
-No, it only applies to games.
-One of the major points about buying PS3 will be Bluray movies, which is what Sony wants you to buy it for.
-If you import a PS3 from another country you'll also have to buy all your movies from there.
-Basically, most people won't want to buy a PS3 AND a Bluray player. So they'll suck it in and buy this more expensive PS3. Most of them.
