Also, I would like to keep all of the product info I currently have in my PS2, but I am not sure if the two databases are compatible. Am I able to retain the PS2 product info and load it into the PS3 database, and if so, how can I do it?
Thanks
Mat

If you can't do this through your control panel, you can try the command line approach.

Here are some tips for selecting a host:
