If they do $100, it'll be interesting to see how different the hardware, complimenting the price cut will be. I don't mean "OMG SLIM PS3!" but small die and perhaps even a simpler mother board. $50 with a mild hardware changes would be the most economical for their bottom line. The problem with a $100 cut is that you could lose steam fast, while mounting up more losses and be stuck in a negative cycle of having to slash prices drastically to stimulate sales for short periods.
