Well, that already exists as you probably know.
The 20, 60 GB and—to some extent—the old 80 GB PS3 models are able to do all of what you mentioned. It was certainly a risk, buying a 60 GB back then despite its high price, but I feel that it was all worth it in the end.

I once bought a JP PS2 in Japan, and when I returned home for a while, I had a mod chip installed so it could play US games as well. It's one of the advantages of coming from a country where piracy is quite rampant, but on the other hand it's also risky for the machine itself. To this day it still works, and I mainly used it for JP PS2 games only.
My old, fat, region 1 workhorse feels like it's about to give up its ghost one of these days, but she's still alive and well.
As for my 60 GB PS3, I can't help but feel that it has increased in value somewhat from my point of view.
