Don't you mean 160GB and wouldn't Sony have to file another one of those letters to the FCC again. LOL, better yet, we could see a 200GB on the cards in the future.

my bad...

and plus they will get the 65 nm cpu with it

So, the 60GB will become the new 20GB and the 80GB will be the new 60GB (and 40 is the new 30 and tan is the new black

).

IMO from a marketing standpoint the 80GB drive size seems inadequate when compared to the 120GB drive being offered in 360 Elite.

One would think that they would at least try to exceed that specification given that Microsoft is basically locked into the 120GB spec from a end user cost standpoint.

I see nothing but more anti-Sony FUD coming from this.

I didn't see anything about 65nm. Was that announced previously or is there another link?

I have a 60 GB PS3 and I can not see why would I need more. I dont need to store content I will never again use on it. I dont need to store BD movies on it...

And if it is such a problem, anybody can buy a bigger HDD and exchange the old one... and you dont need to buy a new console instead

have fun everybody
