If Sony's smart, they'll hold off on the price cut as long as possible and instead focus on rejuvenating the PSP, which sounds like the strategy they're going for if the redesign rumors are true. If they can get their PSP business rolling healthily and maintain PS2 sales, those two products could prop up the entire gaming division as they work on cost reducing the PS3. The PSP's got a strong line up for the year (God of War, Wipe Out, Crisis Core, Jeanne d'Arc), so all Sony really needs is a strong redesign/price cut to get people excited about the system again. Pretty easy if you ask me especially considering current sales aren't terrible to begin with.
Once again. How is the PSP unhealthy? It's already profitable, every PSP they sell is under cost and all the software is free cash flow money.
It's already on course to outsell both GC and Xbox and no one thought those consoles were completely useless, even though they got crushed.
