I think Sony bit their own asses and underestimated the value of having full BC in their models, I know consumers in Norway too were roaring when they heard it would be unavailable in newer SKU's.
Launching at such high price was a huge mistake, but by God; removing BC was even bigger.
They have no choice but to include it again in newer versions, but there will already be a heap of owners who get shortsticked and feel upset over it, this is surely a loose/loose situation right now for Sony but they still need to add BC again to save face with their fans whose belief in this once monolithic console hardware company is waning fast.
