Joystiq recently added the specs and details of the Playstation 3 Slim SKU to the larger chart of the Playstation 3 line, pitting the features available out of the box against all other released versions for the system. Looks like those expecting backwards compatibility with the new model are still out of luck, and the odd exclusion of an ethernet cable will definitely have some gamers scratching their heads. Take a look for yourself below, courtesy of Joystiq.
