| shams said: This is just a prediction - with the real figures out tomorrow... but I find this number pretty scary from Sony: "PlayStation 3 is being outsold by Wii by about two to one, causing Sony's game division, its second-largest by revenue, to post a fourth-quarter loss of 121 billion yen and a record 245 billion yen deficit for the fiscal year, according to five of the 11 analysts. The loss may exceed profits from electronics such as Bravia televisions, and the movie unit, whose ``Spider-Man 3'' generated record box-office sales when it opened this month. " ... So in the last 3 months, Sony's game division has lost approx 1.1billion - and 2.2billion for the financial year (last 12 months). Ouch.

do you even believe this bloomberg???
Web morgan has already said that the production cost of ps3 has dropped below $ 600 and SONY are in a position for a price reduction.
It is possible that Sony’s cost of production for the PS3 has declined to the point that the company may consider a hardware price cut some time this summer, and we may see a price cut for the PS2 before the holidays.
