Wii only owners: Could you see yourself getting a PS3 after a price drop?

$150 dollars seriously guys? :-/???? I think your taking it a bit too far.

I think $329-$349 with a stellar pack-in is a great value. built in wifi, out of the box internet, and bluray. shrug.

Then you just don't understand the market. Your motivation for buying a PS3 is *completely* different from some of our motivations.

The days of me buying a console to buy (additional) games are OVER. I have heaps of consoles, and heaps of games - and I can get "great" games for $20-$50 (if not less). There is no motivation for me to spend *hundreds* (and the PS3 is STILL $700! here in Australia).

WiFi/Internet - whatever. I have plenty of Internet machines, and my wife has a iTouch which she loves.

Ironically, the primary reason I would get a PS3 is BluRay - something I honestly have little/no interest in. It (PS3) would effectively be a "toy", and as such I am only willing to pay "toy" prices for it.

But that's just me - everyone has their own motivations and reasons for all purchases (I'd be much more likely to get one of the new iTouch devices - and if one ever comes out with VoIP built-in - I'm so there...).
