This is quite a deal for folks who have been holding out. But the 3G model comes with a monthly service fee, right?

You don't have to activate the 3G. Also, there's no subsciprtion. You pay month by month as you choose.

Bad news for any product to be discounted by that much by a retailer. Wouldn't be surprised if some stores stop stocking it. Only a select few stores here in Australia sell the Vita and Vita games, Target, Kmart (different companies however sharing only their name) do not.

Yeah, this is a steal. Too bad it looks to be back-ordered :(

Does not look backorder - if I understand what backorder is, that is. It's probably launch bundles sitting somewhere in a storehouse.

Very very enticing at that price and with a memory card.

This could be big in both directions.

Sony cutting the price by that much or retailers losing faith in the vita and reduce their stock

What? Did you read the OP? It's an online deal on the higher end launch bundle and only at Target. They're clearly just getting rid of old stock.

I said: retailer reduces stock.
you said: You are wrong. They just get rid of old stock!

So you agree with me then?

Imagine not having GamePass on your console...
