On Saturday, Sony revealed what downloads will be available through the PlayStation Store on November 11th, as well as downloads that will be out by the end of the year. In addition, Sony said it plans to add 10 PS1 titles each month, none of which are projected to carry a price tag of more than $14.99.
Blast Factor, flOw, Lemmings, Kazuo, Puzzle, and Mainichi Issho will all be available by the end of the year; all are downloadable. All of the games, not incuding Mainichi Issho, will have free demos from day one. Blast Factor and Minichi Issho will be available as full game downloads on the 11th, and, other than Minichi Issho, which will be free, no other prices have been announced at this time.

In November, Sony will also begin offering PS1 games to download off the store.
