the PSP GO is probably cheaper to manufacter with no umd drive because the majority of the pwoer comes from the spinning disc so other parts can use less power and cost less.
ps3 slim also will have cost cutting features, probably zero ps2 compat, smaller cpu which means less heat, so less durable parts are needed..
i actually think for once this was a very smart plan for sonny to do.. its just what they needed to do right now

prediction: wii to sell 150million console by end of 2010
