But it sounds like the early adopter phase is nearly over, like I said before I anticipate a cheaper slimmer PS3 for this year. Fingers crossed.

You never did explain to me the support behind your theory of a cheaper slimmer PS3.  I'd be interested in that.  But where is any information on such a thing?  Or support to believe it will happen?

 

It was rumored a little while back, maybe 1-2 months ago.  Also, theres a thread made just yesterday I believe about the size of the mobo and how much smaller it is now which came from the most recent CES show held only a few days ago.  I'm of the belief that the PS3 will be slimmed down twice - once possibly next year, then again 2-3 years later - based solely on it's size.  There's also information in the same thread about the mobo that states that Sony has come up with a way to compress the size of the blu-ray drive.  Once the GPU is the same size as the CPU, 45nm I believe, I firmly believe we'll see a slim(er) model.
