Hey!!
I am more interested in watching Series and Movies bought from Amazon (U.S) and not that into games. The Playstation 3 I bought from Croma Malad doesnt play any of those DVDs and Blu Rays. I want to buy another one (U.S version). Can anybody tell me how do I buy a U.S version PS3 in Mumbai? Literally ANY information would be welcome!!!
Thanks in advance and please dont mistake this for a duplicate post.
 
@Santosh: Try visiting Alfa. They used to sell those imported PS3 consoles. Not sure if they were NTSC models though.

@Joy: The WD player you're suggesting doesn't take Blu-Ray discs or any form of optical media. It plays Blu-Ray/HD-DVD/DVD etc. based media files which have been ripped off the actual disc off a USB drive. So he would need to invest in a separate USB HDD as well (unless he owns one) to play those files off it.
 
Thanks a lot...I'll try Alpha this Saturday.

I have already found a guy who is willing to buy my existing PS3. I will be playing games but only not as much as I'll be watching movies.

Buy a WD Bluray DVD player instead , it will cost a lot less , as you are not interested in games why buy another PS3 and to get a US PS3 you have only two options either from Grey market without warranty or order it from someone who can get it for you from there.

Western Digital's WD TV HD Media Player - Video Review :: TweakTown

Contact KMD , he sells those WD BlueRay HD players for around 7.5k.

I buy movies from that region only. I dont think there many Blu Rays exclusively for Region "C" (which Indian version PS3 plays).
OK, correction made ==> Alfa!!
But do you know if I can get the U.S verion from there?
