Do you guys think Sony may launch the 40 GB at $499 and keep the 80 GB at $599 after dumping the 60 GB? Maybe bundling it with a game or a movie (Spiderman 3) too...
I don't think it's that likely, but it's possible considering that the price drop on the 60 GB model was apparently a stock clearance... And looking at how Sony has repeatedly shot itself in the foot lately with their PS3 business, I'm not betting they won't do it!
They would definitely lose a lot of money if they released it for less than $499... At their last quarter's press conference, they said that they were expecting to reach profitability on hardware "later rather than sooner", so I can't see them being very aggressive on price cuts for now. $399 would be very surprising to me, but $449 seems possible too.
