Well if you really want to put it into perspective
I am a student, If I work, I will get a minimum of 20bucks here, doesnt matter what I do. What do american get for one hour?
So who is getting screwed over here?

Where I am living in the US the minimum wage is $7.25, which is a little over €5 an hour.  Yeesh.

Not that many people are working minimum wage jobs.  I have had no issues getting a tutoring job (that I hardly ever do) for $10 an hour as well as an office job for $10 an hour.

Just sayin, I dont think we get screwed over here! its totally different here with the money, in the end it comes together about the same. so

it´d come out to be the same,  if they just made a € out of the $ sign, but this didnt happen. What does a Wii cost? 150€/150$. what does a PS3 cost? 250$250€ .. and it goes on.  but they've added another 100 bucks to the european price, which is just .. more. i mean, not to complain about something i dont care for anyway, but i am pretty sure that Sony told @E3 how this thing was built to be affordable 3D. it is, but the simple fact that you can get a 32" 3D LED TV for 469€ (http://www.amazon.de/LG-37LW4500-LED-Backlight-Fernseher-Full-HD-schwarz/dp/B004QF0PQY/ref=sr_1_10?ie=UTF8&qid=1319810397&sr=8-10) simply destroy's the purpose of Sony's tv.

of course, Sony is a recognized brand here in europe, but yeah, there's not much of a reason to get that thing, and on top - it carries the playstation brand, not the Sony brand. And well.. we all know what happens if sony charge's too much for Playstation products. :P they'll get away with this with their TV's and Laptops, but not with gaming related things, what 'this' TV is supposed to be. a tv for gaming.
