Why is it that they can't attempt a software emulator on the 40GB? I know that they dropped the emotion chip on the 80GB PS3 and were still able to have a software emulator (taken from Wikipedia:
I mean if the 360 can have an Xbox emulator with a largely different architecture and no hardware compatibility, thenmaybe the PS3 could do the same with the PS2. I understand that to us, the PS2 is probably a harder system to emulate even though the Xbox is much more powerful because we don't really understand all ins and outs of the system as much as we do a standard x86 machine like the Xbox. However, who better to know that info than Sony's engineers?
