I don't see MUCH momentum in PS3 sales even after the price cut

The one they are discontinuing in USA is known as the 'Premium Version' in Europe!!
I know I'd be pretty pissed off if I thought in a few months time the next one they call the 'Premium pack' was the same price as the inferior one I just purchased!

Much like I'm pissed off that I paid Microsoft directly for a 3 year extended warranty on my son's Xbox360 which is now free for everyone!

 I don't know where you have heard that. in the UK there is only one PS3 and its not known as the 'Premium Pack' - it's called a 'PS3'.

i'm not surprised there's no price cut here, it only came out in March! and i don't see the 80gb version coming out here for a long time - maybe in limited edition numbers but thats it.

I've heard that the failure rates for UK 360s is higher than NA... does anyone know if that is true?
