3 consoles.

The PS3 is not a $500 machine. Sony is releasing a hugely dumbed down version for $500. Their hope is really that you'll think "Well, I could give $500 and get a half-assed PS3, but for a $100 more..." and you'll end up paying the extra. The $500 version is a joke.

Of course, it won't stop there. I'm sure you all remember what happened when the PS2 came out. About 100 would ship every month and people would give double, or triple the price, simply because "They have to have one". I won't be at all surprised if people start selling $1000+ PS3s on Ebay the day they start shipping.

Bottom line: Sony is selling a $600+ machine. I don't know about you guys, but that's too rich for me.

Oh I remember, my friend's dad got 3 ps2's. He sold one for $900 and one for $1500 CDN.
