Forums - Sony - Things Sony can strip from the PS3 to help lower the price

1. The built in WIFI - They could create a proprietary adapter USB and charge $75 for it like MS does.

2. Out of box BD MOVIE playback - They could make a hardware dongle that unlocks BD MOVIE playback, much like the MS DVD remote for DVD MOVIE playback. $25

3. ???

With these two items removed, which lots of ppl claim they don't want or need, Sony could drop the price to $299, and those who actually want these things could have them for an extra $100.

 edit: Although I hadn't originally said it. Of course, I meant do this for a 'Core' type SKU for those who really don't want these things and just want the console for gaming.

Buy the add-on, of course.

 



The WIFI is awesome. . . Blu-ray cannot leave. So I guess all this leaves is? Oh right nothing sorry.



@xen

so the 360 fans were right when they said PS3 has no games.....lol



All hail the KING, Andrespetmonkey

So went Sony says that the PS3 packs more value then the 360 they are wrong, but to remove extras that people do not want it would be also?
