Not that this changes anything, since the reason for the frequency has been correctly explained in this thread, but look at the dimensions and weight in the paper. This is the retail unit. :) The part that says manufactured in Japan/China is interesting, as well as the fact this already exists. We should be talking about that instead... :|

So it seems like even the retail PS4 unit will have the capability to be clocked at 2.75 GHz. For sure it will be underclocked at 1.6 GHz.. but for future that window can widen with a firmware upgrade.
Sony's PS4 dev kit passed by the FCC roughly a week ago, and now its consumer-oriented counterpart has passed through Uncle Sam's offices. Not only do the federal documents show the consoles' polished exterior, but they once again note a "max clock frequency" of 2.75GHz, teasing just what kind of horsepower sits inside the black parallelogram. Though there isn't much more to note in the agency's files, a duo of system labels marked with "Made in China" and "Made in Japan" hint that Hirai and Co. will be manufacturing the hardware in both those territories. Mark Cerny's wunderconsole won't be hitting store shelves until later this year, but it already has the appropriate paperwork to make the trip stateside.

Am I missing something?
It says the dev kit has that maximum clock frequency. What does that have to do with the retail box?
