its a funny world we live in
I doubt it will raise the sails for the PS3...probably going to raise the price and its already too expensive for most:(:cry:
Why would they raise the price?
For 499$ you get a cheap linux computer your kids can do their homework on
a blu ray player
a game console
built in wireless
various flash card support.
Can act as a media center especially now that it has DivX support
With some major game releases around the corner, this system is seriously DYNOMITE
