HOLY SHIT, take a look at this!:

 I read about this on slick deals. this was a weekend Manager's special only in a few Best Buys in the east coast.  It was 2 weeks ago.

They had over 150 PS3's stacked on a floor display at the BB closest to me after Christmas. The stack was built into the shape of a small room and had been there since Black Friday (a store employess told me they were not restocking it, they just made the room a little smaller over the season as the PS3's were not selling well). Even with all that overstock they never dropped the price to $299.

I think the PS3 will sell well at $299, and the other consoles will drop in price and continue to sell well too.
