Ok lets look at this again.

~70% (probably slightly less, they only used the word approximate. Could be anywhere 65% up) reduction - from what? I would assume the price of manufacturing the first batch of PS3's, this number could be higher than $1000 per unit.

The number of variables we don't actually know means that manufacturing could easily be up to $350 per unit still, I don't think we can claim that the PS3 cost $250. Especially when it seems such a stupidly low number considering how recently they were losing money.

I cant believe this thread is going on especially after it was found out that they did say PS manufacturing cost are down close to 70% in the conference call. Give it up people. Maybe they are talking about the PS3 slim being that cheap to manufacture, not the current ones on the shelves. Plus it doesnt include the packaging, controller and cables that are included in the box as well.

You don't know what it includes. And no, they aren't talking about future models (read the thread to understand why I say this)

And you dont know what it includes either, I was speculating like everyone else in this thread, including you. Also, Where in the hell did I say it is the manufacturing costs of the future models???? I said the PS3 Slim which just so happens to be the same damn thing you said.
