The PS3 is a good all-in-one unit. But I'd hold off until you actually have the HDTV ready to go.

For HDTVs, the Sony KDS-60A3000 I picked up recently has been fantastic, so I'd recommend that.

Lastly, I'd say to wait until January 2008 CES before doing anything. A lot of new hardware including laser-based HDTVs may be announced that you may want instead of the current models. Also, I'd advise as the best player to go with right now if you want to "play it safe" is the Samsung BD-UP5000 since that will play both hidef formats and has the fantastic Reon DVD upscaler that clearly beats out the DVD upscaling capabilities of the PS3 and cheaper standalones.
