tongue in cheek
We were able to achieve this amazing 70% cost reduction by removing PS2 backward compatibility, the flash memory card reader and 2 USB ports. We have also removed the Cell processor and RSX chip and bluray drive. We now fill every PS3 unit with a bucket of sand. We have also unbundled the dual shock controller. We also moved our production facility from China to a 4th world country that employs chimpanzees. But, we will start to include an HDMI cable with every PS3.

If Sony is finally making money on the hardware, good for them. I'll be waiting for the PS3 slim if/when it comes out. I just hope it incorporates 45nm cell processor.
