For the bottom part it will be positve for sony in the long term, come march when they will ikely cutt he price by $50 it will be at $349.99 and the 80gb will be at $449.99(with motorstorm dropping to $39.99). 65% of PS3 sales this week came from the 40gb ps3, only about 33k of the ps3;s were the 80gb.

I think they lose about $100.00 per console. But gain it back with software.

Where in the world do you get this "likely price cut in March" nonsense? Speculation passed off as probable fact is no substitute for reality. You (and I) have no idea what the hell is going to happen. Also, this $100 figure? Out of your ass too? I thought so. Show your work before we post, eh?

Edit: After I posted this, I re-read it and found it a little harsh. I don't apologize. I'm just tired of all of this 'pulling stuff out of thin air' jazz. This isn't a predictions thread.

 50-100$ per console is what I think too. No I won't calculate it for you, because you defenitly to crude. Leo-J may be a Sony fanboy, but he definitly doesn't deserve to be attacked in such a offending way. So google for your self, I didn't see you posting a number, and yes this is a prediction thread, or you can lead us to somebody who is actually know the true number!
