well it was kinda obvious the sales wouldn't be huge like the first PS3 "revision" as this was announced less than a week ago with zero advertising. Sony probably wants their current model to phase out before shipping larger quantities of the new PS3 slim. I expect some major PS3 deals to phase out the current PS3 slim

Except that Sony has specifically said that they will not be lowering the price on the older models.  If retailers do, that is one thing, but Sony is not discounting any of the current products.

I meant retailers...I'm sure stores like target,gamestop,best buy will have many deals to come; specaily black friday(well for NA)

I'll capitulate here, because as far as Black Friday goes, I think Sony will offer a discounted price.  I can't see them not offering something for that holiday.  To put their statement into context though, the current PS3 Slim models won't see a discount in an effort to clear out inventories.  As they sell out, they'll be replaced by the new units.
