GFK you are correct, the new 40GB version of the PS3 no longer plays PS2 games at all. Only the old 60GB (no longer sold) PS3's still have some (emulated) PS2-1 compatibility, although it didn't work that well (lucky US and Japanese got hardware support but not europeans).
The Xbox 360 seems to have some issues playing Xbox games as well.
However I don't own any PS2 games or Xbox games this was not an issue for me (my last console was a GC).
