How would a change to a PS3Slim actually proceed?

I have a problem with that, since it's not possible to witheld that information to more than 3 moths before the release. So I think that there would be at least a 3 moth before anouncement. 

I would also argue that, since a Slim version would probably come with a price cut too(not necessarely big), an early anouncement would convince some potential buyers to wait and not by the 360, or possibly even the Wii, in the meantime.
