CGI-Quality said: As I've told people, I don't expect a higher price point than $449.99, or Sony will end up in a PS3-like situation, which the brand can't afford. It's crazy that the GPU on the thing can do nearly 2T.FLOPS, though! For a console, that is stellar! BUT, you hear it here first, the next Xbox will top its power. I just have that certain "sense". |
we may even see the price @ $399.00 with a break even point or maybe a slight profit.

Remember Sony has been investing into 3D TSV stacked chips and PSVita is one such 3D TSV stacked chip.
the challenge is of course Si interposer mechanic reliability but that is exactly why many companies and not just Sony are working on such cost and investment's challenges.
a good example: is if your Ram is 3D STACKED AND THAT Also MEANS LESS area taken up on the Mobo
an great example of this is this:
