Man, I am finally in the market for something like this and now I don't know if I should just wait.

I put off buying an Xbox or PS2 until I was done university, and now I find out there is something better coming out.
I would wait now. Won't be that long just save some extra money so you can buy more games.

Anybody know of web pages that give a sneek peak at the ps3? I have a ps2 now but don't know which I will upgrade too.

The smartest thing that I've heard so far, is that X-box will release Halo 3 on the same day as the PS3. A game like that can totally screw over PS3 sales.

I bought the PS2 on the day it was released. Forutnately I got it from Canadian Tire where I worked and was able to use my staff discount, plus all my Canadian Tire money that I had saved up from using the Gas Bar all the time, so I only paid $130 for a maching that was sold for $400. However this time around, I'll wait a year or two for the price to drop on both consoles. XBOX 360 may be good, but I'll probably stick with Sony.

Unless Sony decides to launch the PS3 with the latest and greatest Grand Theft Auto.

That would be a good idea, but most launch titles tend to suck.
I would be surprised if they launched with such a big game.
The other factor that would sway me is that GTA is not a PS exclusive. Although very late, the GTA games do eventually come out on X-box, so Buying an X-box 360 could get you Halo3 and a new GTA down the road.
