A Sony representative has confirmed this morning that PlayStation 3 will come with a 60GB HDD as standard, but that can be upgraded if preferred. Some of the larger US websites have been speculating that PlayStation 3 would be shipping with an optional 60GB hard disc drive. However it was confirmed this morning that all PS3 consoles will be sold with the HDD out of the box. Sony's president of Computer Entertainment, Ken Kutaragi, announced on Wednesday that all PS3 games are being developed to take advantage of the 60GB HDD.

It official Sony has confirmed it

I posted this in one of the other threads about PS3 and HDDs. Basically: no direct quote + KK himself saying two days ago that he was not yet sure if the HDD would be included in every system out of the box = don't take this article too seriously.
