Looks like my hopes of a slim PS3 didn't come true this time round. Nevertheless Sony presented us with a 80 GB PS3 equipped with a 65 nm Cell and smaller 65 nm RSX, bundled with DualShock3 controller.
After Xbox 360 price is slashed to US$199. Prepare to expect some price cut in PS3 should the new 80 GB model fail to propel PS3 sales. Possibly happening closer to X'mas this eyar or early 2009.
It is reported that a 45 nm Cell would be produced next year. My guess is it would be equipped with a 65 nm RSX. This is likely to happen in Q3 2009. By then the PS3 would be 30 months old and its time for a new look.
A new look coupled with a 45 nm Cell that consumes 40% less power than the 65 nm Cell would certainly be great news for any new PS3 owners.
