PS3 at $299 is a better value than a $299 Elite

[coolestguyever]

PS3 was better value than 360 when it was at $400. I'm not being a fanboy, I'm just adding up the costs of Wifi and Blu-ray.

But I think MS was smart to make features like Wifi optional to keep costs down. I have wifi in my house, but I use a cord because its more reliable.
