if the cost of manufacturing goes down signifcantly then i don't see why Sony wouldn't make a new slim model price it $199  and when they announce PS4 drop PS3 price to $149.

price-cutting PS3 at the launch would only go against PS4 like the nintendo 3DS which is happening now

PS3 would go to $149 2 years before PS4 to earn PS3 some good sales in that time

i say PS4 at last will launch in 2014

don't see it unless the slim model cuts cost significantly. 

well whts your veiw? come on. don't be scared.


why won't the cost go down

RSX and CELL size reduction would help alot

die size reduction

volume manufacturing

follow the price reduction from PS3's launch and you will understand

 

PS3 was making under $10 profit at $299 price in Q1(Jan-Mar2010) last year,it was mentioned by CFO of SONY.after that they had RSX size reduction.alot of PS3 have been manufactured since then so parts becoming common hence cheaper.the recent die reduction in new PS3 which took it from 3.2kg to 2.6kg.

and we still have 1 year before september 2011.
