Actually, they have many more options. As scottie mentioned, they can also have no price cut or a smaller price cut totaling $30-$50 during the year. They can also introduce a new sku with even less features (removing wi-fi and ... I don't know, I don't have a ps3) and selling this for $350.
Sony's situation is the most interesting to look at this year and I still think Sony can surprise us all with something really unexpected. So I'm not taking any guess at this, but I would put many, MANY options on the table if I thought about it. Those are very limited and I see a $100 price cut during this year on the current sku's as unlikely.
