hmmm interesting, so it would seem the rumors of the 120gb console have been debunked by this, and there were some fairly reliable sources backing that claim up

Wow... This was posted on the PS blog about an hour ago, and now its everywhere. I guess it must be big news for some, but I already have my PS3 and am not a huge fan of rumble. Although I may get a DS3, maybe.

I don't think the 120 GB is totally debunked yet. This is just a bundle.

I want to know if this new 80gb bundle has BC and also if it has a 45nm, 65nm, or 90nm cell chip. Why don't they tell us? It's probably the 90nm.

Just a fyi the chips don't really matter on PS3. It may use a little less energy, but it's the other system that overheats and dies.

I suppose that is a valid point.

Wow that's a lot for me to take somehow. Sounds like a good deal but never expected MGS4 to take that approach.

I just bought a 40g. It just kills me that this bundle is coming out. Maybe I'll return the 40g in a couple of weeks and just wait for the 80g.

The Girl that works at the Sony store at the Beverly Center in West Hollywood said that they were coming out with the 120g in June by the way, for what it's worth.
