american ps3 in england

hi everyone. sorry to bother you and you have probably been asked this question 1000 times but i am going over to america in march on a school trip and am thinking of buying an american ps3, due to the amount of money i will save, apparently, ps3 games every where will work on it but could any one give me a list of the advantages disadvantages and will-it-work information, also, i am buying a hdtv so i think it will be ok to play american ps3 from?

Please help.

Thanks.

On a new TV it should be fine. However, the one disadvantage I can think of, is that it can't play PAL Blu Ray DVDs. But these can be imported easily and cheaply.

Shouldn't make a difference, as long as it is NTSC compatible. (You can check this on the TVs specs sheet)
