Would Sony be fine with a $499 price tag on the Orbis?

SONY had a 100$ price cut in the PS3's first and a second year to stay competitive/relevant while the system started out at a 200$ loss. I doubt they've got the balls to launch at over 399 again.

You mean 599??

Huh? Maybe it's an issue with my grammar. At 499/599, they were taking a 200$+ loss on each system. 

 

This loss was due to Blu-ray driver that cost over $200 in 2006, but now we have much cheaper and faster BD drives costing less than $50, so Sony-MS can launch a $500-$600 console without any loss this time.
