While the first PS3 development kits we saw were almost as large as a car, the final development kits are much smaller and quieter. Developers are now getting their hands on these units, as well as the final version of the redesigned PS3 controller.

We recently got to see the new kits and final controllers, and snapped a number of pictures for your enjoyment. Here's a sample of the pictures, but larger versions are available by hitting the screenshots tab above.
