i don't agree with people saying that they need the price drop to get more profitable. Sony will never make up that 1 billion dollars with the PS3, and they certainly won't make up the 2 billion they lost over the last fiscal year. They're just gonna have to wait until next year when a price drop is less costly.

Their main goal is not to make the PS3 profitable, it is to win the HD-DVD war with Blu-ray

Their main goal is to make a profit period. I have yet to see conclusive proof that the potential profit from blu-ray is greater than the profit from video games. Key word being PROFIT.
