Supposedly 3/31 will be a PS announcement from Sony. People have posed the $129 to $99 cut for the PS2. No PS3 items have been posted yet.
Did Sony manage to get a price cut on PS3 and keep it secret? (Doubt it). Other ideas are a new PS3 (slimline?) at the same price but reintroducing B/C. (Good idea IMO.) Another is a major firmware release. (Possible.)
I believe Sony has lost more money on the PS3 than Microsoft lost on the original Xbox. Not a great financial win. Perhaps it's a PS4 w/ improved Cell and improved GPU to lead the next gen and hope to return to #1....
