I agree, if Sony implied a price cut was coming soon, people would wait on the sidelines for a price cut. The same thing would occur if Microsoft and Nintendo cut prices, people would sit on the sidelines waiting for Sony to cut prices. I believe this occured last generation in year 1 of Gamecube. Sony and Microsoft cut prices and Nintendo said they weren't going to. Gamecube sales slowed and a week or two later Gamecube was $150. All three console will see price cuts within a month of each other, guaranteed. Another point is that for Sony to cut prices at the same pace as PS2 (33%), their first NA price cut would have to be $166.66 / $200. Rememeber that the PS3 is basically 400/500 in Japan already, it only follows we'll see the same thing in NA soon. I expect a NA price cut in May/June then a September European price cut.
