A 50$ price-cut just isn't enough

Christmas will give a boost.
Slimline will bring attention back to the system, and also will confirm Sony will finally be making a profit. This will bring advertising from Sony, finally.
A $50/(whatever currency) pricecut would bring more advertisement from retailers.
Gran Turismo is the biggest system seller Sony have, a $50 cut with a Slim at Christmas, along with one of the worlds biggest franchises, would be enough.

Also, almost 23 million people have seen fit to "waste" $400 on a games system. What makes you think they wont want one for $350?

eh, those consumers already have one, i don't think they will all be buying a second ps3.

OT: even if they would make a miniature Ps3, a 50 dollar pricecut won't help. People will always be comparing it to the 360, and Blu-ray standalones are already cheaper and will be getting cheaper.

leo said that nobody would waste $350 on a games console, i said that 23million people already "wasted" $400+. What i meant was, if so many people wanted one for the $400 price, why wouldn't they want one for $50 cheaper.
