I know the PS3 doesn't bitstream HD audio, but does it bitstream regular AC3 and core DTS through HDMI?

The PS3 can decode DTSHD-MA and Dolby TrueHD internally and send out to the receiver as PCM. In order to fully realize HD audio (PCM, DTSHD-MA, & Dolby TrueHD) you should set your PS3 to Linear PCM through HDMI.
You can also bitstream audio out over HDMI but this will only allow for traditional "lossy" core tracks from Dolby Digital and DTS. In order to take advantage of TrueHD with the PS3, it MUST be set to 'Linear PCM' (the PS3 will handle internal decoding).

Btw, I am not Slec. Great read on PS3 Audio. Home Theater>Audio Discussion>Audio and the PS3
