anyone doing this degree at the moment?

is there any difference in the psych part in comparason to a b (psych) or a ba majoring in psych? it seems too good to be true if there isn't. i'd love to major in philosophy in arts and still have the psych part.

and what happens with entry to honours from there?

:)

without doing any research 1 difference will probably be the time it takes you to complete the degree

You can do psychology as part of Arts - if you want to be a psychologist, you need to do honours, so pick the courses that ANU Psych requires for honours (see http://psychology2.anu.edu.au/honours/ ).

You only need 12 courses (72 units) to be eligible for honours in psych. That should leave room for a major in philosophy and other subjects if you are doing a straight BArts.
