PS3 to turn a profit soon

The point here is while they may not be making profit soon, they are DEFINITELY NOT losing "huge amounts of money" any more. And with strong sales of PSP and PS2 ( i know not Nintendo strong, but strong) they are in much better position than we all may have thought.

What it means to me?
The "ideal $299 price point" is well within their reach, and if Xbox360 does drop price to 199, Sony can react. I doubt they will though. I still see core eliminated, Premium to $250, Elite to $350. PS3 may or may not drop price until end of year if thats the case.

I completly agree that the PSP and PS2 sales are helping Sony and the PS3.

But your point on them not losing "huge amount" is moot. First its not based on any facts and second losing money on something they plan to sell by the millions will cost them millions. Let's pretend that Sony only loses $80 dollars per unit sold, if they plan to sell 10 million this year, then they'll lose $800 million dollars!! $50 = $500 Million!
