$300 isn't cheap for what is primarily old tech.  The 360 just doesn't generate the same level of fan furor that PS nation manages either.  As stated it's summer, there is no associated price drop and a lot less fanfare.  I'll guess aound 850k all sku's for 4 wks. starting now.  If we ever see a breakdown it would be roughly 45% new, 40% arcade and 15% Elites maybe. 

It will take a while to clear the old models out if that's what they're doing.  Has anyone actually read that they will cease production on the arcade altogether?  It seems pretty cold to leave people with expensive new harddrives and no possibility of buying a replacement box.  What happens to E74 or rrod warrantys?  Will they hold back some of the old models for the repair channel because they won't be able to replace them with the new version.  A lot of questions without answers.

I don't see the new box at $199 for a year or more.  A stripped down version maybe but the full feature will probably be at $250 for the holidays and the Kinect bundle at $350?  Again that leaves them with nothing at $200 if the arcade is cleared out and discontinued completely.  Hope they know what they're doing because this feels rushed to me.  They seem to be reacting to and copying from their competition rather than thinking long-term.  A lot of off-topic but I needed a vent.  One thing for sure is the chartz just got a lot more interesting.

as of now it only supports b/g not n wireless networks n is the fastest available do ur research thats why it says wireless n in the op and not just wireless

You have a faster than 108M connection?  Why do you need N?

Unless your router (Which also has to be N) is more than ~125 feet away you will so no benefit going from G to N, except for LAN transfers, but for most people G is sufficient - granted I guarantee a lot of sheep.. errr I mean people will get it just because it has wifi now, and it is "N"

WOW @ All these people predicting 2 million....

I am willing to do a BANNING bet that it will not sell 2 million in the first month...

As they used to say either PUT UP or SHUT UP

Must have at least 500 posts for the above bet

thats good to know im not a pc guy dont know the exact benefits of N some say its benefits are while streaming content, most routers are N now, also sony will introduce a new ps3 sku and it also will support N dont know y sony and MS are including it if it wont really do anything

2 million consoles during the middle of summer.... I doubt it. Maybe double  the number that its putting out now and alot of those systems will be to people upgrading their old system.

btw, if sony announces a new system it will probably increase sales a good deal to. ps3 has been alot hotter than the 360 for a  long time now.
