I'm getting a lot of laughs out of the irony of some of these posts. Anything negative about the Go is quickly accused of being posted by a MS, or Nintendo fanboy. However, in rebuttal we get these self-righteous "voice of reason" posts from people whose signatures are loaded with PS3 advertisements. Fanboys are fanboys guys.
I find it rather irritating how Sony seems determined to null out the little success they have had over the past few months due to the PS3 price drop by releasing another steeply priced product. I'm starting to get concerned with the amount of debt they are stacking up with poor timing, and choices in their various markets. It's not like the controversy and hate involving DRM, and this recession have quietly gone under the radar. It's really beginning to look more and more like Sony is out of touch with consumers, and current events. Some of you guys are commenting about them learning from these stupid decisions with the "PS4", but if they keep hemorrhaging money from system production costs, and bad decisions it will be 2020 before they will be able to afford another system launch. I guess we better start buying Vitamin water, and map out an aerobic training regime for our PS3s. :)
Rather then go on about the price which has been discussed in detail, I'd rather bring up something else that bugged me. I understand they are trying to tap into the Iphone/Ipod market but with only 16 GBs of memory it isn't a very attractive investment. I understand you can use memory sticks but even the most organized people have an easy time losing, but a hard time keeping track of those little things. Audiophiles like myself who go with FLAC quality, combined with videos, and games will eat that memory quickly. I imagine another whole crop of new possible problems just pondering what will happen when the unavoidable memory upgrades start becoming necessary.
