Yeah but they are also launching a phone AND a PSP2 this year, I don't think that the shareholders will be too happy if it slips back into red again, too much in the year to warrant such a high drop! $50 will be a lucky thought, well in my opinion anyway, although I'd like a $199 PS3, would definitely pick one up at that price.

Xperia Play will be sold at a profit or subsidized by carriers.  It's also Sony Ericson's deal, SCE doesn't have to worry about it really.

I hadn't really considered PSP2 fully though... yeah, it may only end up being a $50 cut.  But I still think Sony has to cut some in 2011 to keep from falling behind.

Yeah it does need a cut to stop from falling behind the competition, it's the question or whether they'll do it or not. This gen Sony has made several mistakes that have put me off the PS3, even though I liked the original Playstation and was somewhat positive towards PlayStation 2, although preferred Xbox at the time x). I don't know even $50 cut seems optimistic at this stage, although somewhat likely, in comparison with the $100, all comes down to how much Software makes up for possible loss on hardware. Interesting year, I think 360 and Wii cuts are given though.
