They've carefully danced around the reality of the situation and tactfully avoided solid facts and proof. Their job now is not just to sell the consumer on the PS3 but sell investors on it as well, so its in their best interest to spin the truth as much as possible. This being the case, their word can only be taken with a grain of salt. This isn't to say there's no truth to their claims what so ever, but its doubtful they're fairing terribly well considering their claims, announcements and promises focus largely on short term goals, not the bigger picture. |
I have to agree with you... But there r two things... my estimate doesn't show them having any sort of profit... Rather they r still loosing around 70 - 100 on 40 GB and like 50 on 80 GB model.
Secondly there is a huge cost of administrative expense, advertisements and game publishing and so many other things like free server services... So definitely these things do add up.
But overall i think they r not in terribly bad condition either.. I believe they have manage to cut the manufacturing cost quite a bit and but they still need to go a long way to come in black cuz they need to lower the price further as 40GB model has shown them... The customer will only buy when the console will fall in its price range. So they have to bring one SKU around 250 - 300 range... and they can't wait a whole year either..
