One important point -- $400 > $300.

Why do I mention that? Because Sony sold a lot of PS2s (esp. in Japan) by being the least expensive DVD player.

However, since Blu Ray units are already now starting at $300, it can't depend on that same market for the PS3.

QFT. Sony simply cannot afford to let HD-DVD have players that cost half as much. HD-DVD players will be down to $199 and perhaps even $149 this holiday season. Went to Costco today and the HD-DVD player was sold out at $249. The days of the PS3 being a cheap BR player are over.
