Traveling with your PS3?

Me and my girls are going on vacation this coming up week. As many of you with younger kids know that once they have played at the beach/pool they get tired, cranky and take naps. I'm thinking about taking my PS3 to the condo for the week to get some practice in during down time with the kiddos. Do any of you take your PS3 with you when you go on vacation? My only concern about playing at the condo is the internet speed, it's been a couple years since I have been and last time their connection was terrible.

Was like $349 when I bought it from Amazon in June of last year.
The Picture looks damn good to me and has HDMI which makes it nice.
I bought a 92 inch screen that was on sale for like $60 at the same time. Works better than the sheet of drywall or tarp that I used to use.
We have some fun with it.
Night football games are always a good time.

And I will have to get a good pic with a football game or something up. It displays HD pics and looks great.
For the $400 I have invested in the projector and screen, well worth it.
Very nice to watch a sporting event on a 92 inch screen while sitting outside, enjoy a "girly" wheat beer and smoking a stogie.

The bugs get waaaay too bad out here at night to be able to enjoy a movie outside like that

Same here in the summer.
Would have to wear a citronella candle on each limb to avoid being picked on like an appetizer.
