It maybe a little late for that now anyway as the PS3 comes out there this friday I think. I agree on both points. For the price of a PS 3 you can get more than two Wii's The price of the PS-3 for a pure gaming console would be rdiculous. Either you want a cheap BluRay-Player or you are an absolute die hard fan that would pay anything for a Sony game console. THe Wii instead is more targeted at more casual gamers or gamers without an HD Displays (by far the majority of european customers (In Japan and the US HD Display were much earlier available than in Europe). Under this circumstances the Wii is not really a compepetitor of the PS-3, but the PS-2. Its main competitor would be the Xbox 360, less multimedia targeted buit a HD game console for half the price of the PS-3 (299 to 599).

cheap blu ray? With sony lowering the price of the blu ray to most likely 299 this year...I doubt anybody would want a PS3 for the blu ray after that.
