| shams said: Missing something else... AFAIK, the 60Gig PS3 is effectively in clearance. Sony will no longer produce the units - once they are sold out, its over (replaced by the 80Gig PS3). So the $499US price point is temporary (once sold out, only 80Gig models will be available - for $599). Hopefully once they sell out, they will release the 80Gig model for $499 permanently. I don't think the public will be impressed to find that the price effectively goes up $100 in a couple of months.

So Sony is tricking everyone with a temporary price drop, tsk, tsk, tsk
Sony continues to shoot itself in the foot
