Unless it's accessible when you remove the harddrive, that could still be an issue when that goes. The system itself does also contain a lithium battery-probably a standard computer battery. So it *seems* like the PS3 will still be usable even when there batteries die, but. Tried it at the menu screens, in MGS4, and in the Condemned 2 demo. You just hit the PS button and it seems to work like normal. But it turns out if you turn on the system with the normal power button, the controller DOES function. With the battery removed, the controller CAN'T turn on the system anymore. I've tried removing the battery from my Dualshock 3 (it's a bit of a pain-took a lot more force than the pictures showed, but at least a normal, small phillips screwdriver will work). It's goofy sealed proprietary battery approach could leave the Playstation 3 could be in the same position.but thankfully that doesn't appear to be the case.
