I have been told that the reason its hard to find a 80GB Sony *at least in my area* is because

1. The 80GB PS3 is made in Japan not china like the 40GB and they take more time and care to make them.
2. Because they stopped production of them for a month for the MGS4 bundle *this one doesn't make any sense to me*

3. and they are going to release a 160GB Sony and discontinue the 80GB.

Just wondering if any one knows if their is any truth to these.

I don't know that sounds hard to believe Sony would be making bad business decisions if they keep making and discontinuing models.

I have a 240 HDD atm in my PS3. Releasing a 160 is quite possible with not that much of a jump in price, it's pretty much terms of how practical that much space is.

you heard wrong. The 80 GB is here to replace the motorstorm bundle and the reason you can find one is that every one and their mother is buying one. Dont expect to find one during the holidays either. I work in best buy and I can honestly tell you to get one you have to come to the store looking for it.

80gb is not discontinued yet, there are still shiments of the 80gb MGS4 bundle, and supposebly the next 80gb bundle will have Rock Band 2 or one of those music rythem games, if the price stays the same and it would only cost a little more to manufacture its possible they would replace it with a 120gb hdd, i can buy a 320Gb for $120 and a 120gb for $55, so it would probably cost them $20-30 for a 120gb since theyre buying directly from manufaturer.
