PS3 price cut

Perhaps not the biggest surprise ever but Sony's PS3 price cut has to be welcomed. UK details will be revealed later this week but anything less than the equivalent - around 50 quid - will be disappointing. And if they can get it to say 349.99 UKP then suddenly the PS3 will be in touching distance of mainstream consumer consciousness.

The launch of an 80gb version - for $599 - in the US makes less sense though. Be honest - is it really the "lack" of hard drive space that is stopping you from getting a PS3? No, thought not. I'll be very surprised if the 80gb version comes to Europe this year and certainly not without some major content partnership announcements. But the price cut is good news - how low does it (realistically) have to go before you'll be getting your PS3?
