If lossless audio is important to you, and more money is needed to buy a receiver that does HDMI advanced audio decoding, then the PS3 isn't quite the bargain, but a tease of good things to come.

It appears a basic HDMI audio receiver will be sufficient (rather than one with onboard lossless decoding) given that the PS3 will more likely be able to decode internally than bitstream.
If you want avoid HDMI altogether, then the PS3 is not for you, of course.

Yeah, you have less options w/ the PS3, but not everyone of us already own a preproc/receiver that decodes lossless via optical connection

No MC lossless via optical is possible.
