I thought I'd read / seen somewhere recently that although that is ultimately what Valve would like to achieve (PC/Mac/Console crossplatform), the initial offering will be PC/Mac crossplatform. Balancing gameplay in crossplatform with consoles being somewhat a challenge, but one they're not afraid to dip their toes into at some point.

One article I read said they were going to lump PC/Mac and PS3 together though matchmaking regardless of the input method used - PS3 will be able to use Mouse and Keyboard, Controller or PS Move wand thingy.

360 is being left out in the cold with no mouse/keyboard support (controller only) most likely because of Microsoft's rules.
