Our Linux kit for PlayStation2 was little more than the price of the hd/keyboard/mouse you got with it. It contained documentation for all the hardware and from what I can tell setup only a small layer of resistance to hitting the hardware directly. The biggest problem is the only audience you have for any development is other PS2 Linux users, where as Sony are talking about Linux being preinstalled on the PS3 HD.
PS3 + Linux is the closest thing to a resurrection of home computing I can think of since it's death in 1994.
