Sure, in a matter of weeks this will all be trivial, but the video gives us a good sense of how the PlayStation 3 will power on and off and sync with the controller. There's an oddity at 2:11 where the guide's hand disappears, but it doesn't seem to indicate any funny business beyond that.
There's also some attention paid -- more would have been welcomed -- to the Cross Media Bar, which has been adapted from the PSP interface. Anyone else feel like there's too much dead space in its transition to the big screen?
Update: Apologizes, this video was also the subject of Kevin's 'hottest game video.'

The XMB is surely adapted from the PSP, but the PSP adapted it from the PSX

However, I like the video

We have seen hours of game footage, but almost nothing of the start-up procedure of the console, the LED lights on it, what you or cannot (for example turn it off while booting) do and how the menu looks on an SDTV.
Seriously, you guys here are soooooo n00b.

Couple quick thoughts:
1) I wonder how the stand-by mode works given the UK's new law about devices that must power off completely.
2) How does the controller sync work should there be multiple systems in a room? Say, a video gaming room at a convention or the like?
