I doubt sony would release a 16gb $149 ps3.. they will probably release a $199 redesigned slim model for this fall.. and push a heft harddrive along with it, it would not be.. smart of them to kill their potential psn sales because they are limiting the HDD capacity for their own console in the future.. especially considering how cheap it seems to be to have a large HDD..
Now, what would make sense is if they decide to really push gaikai and they start streaming PS3/PS2/PS1 games to this new ps3.. and it would need little to no HDD space, so it would be 16GB, and all people would need would be a playstation plus account, or.. they could purchase the games on gaikai for a cheaper price.. than on retail.. while still being able to buy retail games.. and launch this streaming product for 149.. that would make a lot more sense.. but a 16gb HDD would still be stupid imo
