Sony Won't 'Rule Out' PS3 Price Reduction

[HDTV1080P]

The following is rumors only and not based on facts

Looks like the rumors might be true. This October possible a new model PS3 with a 80GB or larger hard drive might hit the market with a $100 price reduction. The new PS3 would also have less components since it would be using integrated components. Also the new model would do a software emulation for PS1 and PS2 games instead of a hardware emulation.

Quote
“"Sony does not rule out the possibility of lowering the price" of the PS3, Sony president Ryoji Chubachi told the daily Yomiuri Shimbun. He went on to say that the company would make a "full assessment" of the competitive situation in the game market, and then make a decision.”
