Not yet confirmed but highly likely. There is only financial incentive for Sony to get to a two sku model for the PS3. They would have one high end model, and one low end model. They are adopting the Microsoft framework. Probably by next spring that is if the PS3 survives the holiday we will see a elite model from Sony.
Personally I am not impressed with the Microsoft or Sony strategy for the holiday season. Sony selling a crippled console. Microsoft seemingly advocating a bundle approach. The lack of backwards compatibility will hurt sales. Negating much of the gain produced by the lower price. While the bundles do not seem to be the appropriate games. I think a Madden, Halo 3, or even a Bioshock would have done wonders. Instead the rumors are saying Forza, Marvel, viva pinata, or even a Call of Duty.
I suppose if you pushed me on the question I would say that Microsoft has the better offer. Two games in a package and at a lower price should have a bit more appeal then a gimped system at the lower price with no game.
