AOL offering free PS3 in deal

AOL has launched an awesome deal in time for the holidays - sign a two-year contract for AOL Broadband Wireless Plus and receive a free 40GB PlayStation 3.

In addition, they'll send you a wireless Sixaxis controller (obviously) and the high-flying adventure Ratchet and Clank Future: Tools of Destruction.

Besides the two-year contract (which also includes their AOL Talk call plan - included in the GBP 19.99 bundle), you'll have to pay a shipping charge of GBP 14.99 for the PS3 package. It's a small price to pay for the smile that the shiny black console will bring to your face.

As you may have been able to tell, this is a UK only deal, so all of us United States folks are missing out on the party. So now we know how it feels...

    yeah pointless seeing as over 2 years you're paying £480 for a 40Gb ps3 whereas you could buy a 60Gb ps3 for £350 at the moment specially as most places will do interest free credit.

    i wont mention that AOL is pretty poor... oops i just did.

    AIM on PS3 would be pretty awesome. MSN on 360 is cool, but if AOL and Sony got together to do AIM over PSN that would be a slap in the face to MS.

    What we truely need on our PS3s is GAIM. It's like all the best instant messagers rolled into one.

    AIM would probably be the main benefit of having a teamup with AOL besides this.

    AOL blows hairy ones.  End story. Aim on Ps3 would be sick as anything but highly unlikely
