even if the 40GB isnt selling, it does have a psychological effect on the consumer in the same way as the 360 core does. The consumer thinks, 'great, I can get a PS3 for 400 euro now, thats 200 euro less than before, but wait for just another 100 euro I can get the top end PS3 with two games'.

conclusion: The 40GB is selling more 60GB PS3's than 40GB PS3's!

Conversely, the existence of the 60 GB model decreases PS3 sales too:

Potential customer: Woohoo, I'm going to store to pick up one of those "cheap" 40 GB PS3s...

30 minutes later:

Potential customer: mmm, the 500 € model is so much better, but damn that's too much money! I'll save some more money or wait until the price drops...
