oki doki.
1) PS3 cost 500-600$.
2) after 1-2 years it will cost less, probably 300-400$.
3) ps3 has blu-ray, so no need for 5 dvd for a game, and you can watch full HD moovies.
4) http://stuff.tv/news/id-4735/ - best for full HD by stuff.
5) people wait not for one game, but for many, so when FFXIII, MGS4, DMC4, HS, Lair, Ratchet, Uncharted, LTB and etc. will be realesed, these games will incredibly boost ps3 sales, price won`t matter.
6) ps3 and wii are in diffrent categories, so people will buy and ps3, and wii. They are not rivals.

The second you said "Price Won't Matter" it became clear that you don't realize that most people in the world don't have magical wallets ... They have limited resources and after they pay for their rent, transportation, food and other "needs" have very little left over for "hobbies" or "toys"
Everything else you mention may be true but you fail to point out that when the Gamecube and XBox launched the PS2 had a 20 Million unit lead ... The March 2001 number you pointed out was the number of units the PS2 sold when it was impossible to find it on store shelves. Also the PS2 physically ran out of units in November/December 2000 after it launched in North America ...
