"company leadership discussed the current impact of climbing computer memory costs. In particular, they anticipate new strategies that will ensure minimal price fluctuations affecting core PlayStation 5 hardware"

What a bunch of assholes, increase of 100 USD is now "minimal price fluctuations"? Really? 

Unless those reports were wrong, there needs to be immediate accountability by the CFO for saying something like that when the price would increase massively 1 month later.

That's a big part of my anger about this thing right now, even as the price increase was insane by itself.

Talking about securing deals to the end of 2026 and ways to prevent prices going up for the console and immediatly raising them by 100 and 150 is outrageous.
