Also do you think they'll come out with a PS3 slim any time soon like they did for PS2? Something with backwards compatibility, a smaller look, and less energy consumption would be awesome
1. Sony stated their goal was to start showing a profit on the PS3 this year.
2. They just released numbers showing they've lost $3billion it so far.
3. There's no big games coming to the PS3 anytime soon, so there would be nothing to coordinate/advertise the price drop with.
I think those three make it unlikely for there to be a price drop for the PS3 anytime soon. I would expect the holidays at the earliest unless the 360 suddenly starts outselling it 3:1 or something (which I also do not expect to happen).
