That is some drop!

Does it mean that they are making progress in making the PS3 hardware cheaper and profitable?

I sure hope so!

 

I think they may have been making progress that nobody knew of. Either that or they are trying to lure in some more developers.

Dev Kits having a high price has nothing to do with them actually costing that much to make, it has everything to do with licensing and just one of several barriers for just anyone getting a hold of a dev kit.

This has nothing to do with a PS3 price cut.

 

Where did I say that one was directly linked to the other? 

Possibly due to the post I quoted in my post? I can see where it looks that way.

I only said that they could be making progress that nobody knows about because it is true that we have no clue what progressed they have made. I was bringing it up because devs complained about dev kit prices and console price and asked if anyone thought that Sony may try to bring in more support by giving in to not just one, but both of these requests. I made that more apparent in my 3rd post in this thread.

I figured it may be a legitimate question considering the price drop rumours.
