If or when do you think Sony will release a new PS3 in order to compete with the massive 120 gig hard drive of the XBOX Elite?

they are not going to, you can buy any laptop hard drive and put it in, unlike the 360. the other reason they made the 360elite was for hdmi which sony already has.

  The 360 Elite has been created to compete feature wise with PS3 even more ...

they'll probably release a ps3 with abigger harddrive just so that the drive seems bigger in the public eye, the casual probably isn't familar with the fact that you can replace it quite easily

PS3 is powerful enough so they don't need to bring another version.

Casuals don't know you can replace the HDD with cheap laptop ones. Later this year they should release a premium with 160GB HDD for $600 and a basic version with a 30GB HDD with plug-in optional Wifi for $400. Also they need to release PS3 specific packaged HDD upgrades in stores for idiots who don't know you can upgrade.... a good way to bring in some extra money too.

The 360's 120gb hdd for $180 is a joke, I found a 500GB HDD for the PS3 for $200. The PS3 already has all it needs "It's future proof".

The biggest 2.5'' sata drive is 200gb which is what you need for the ps3 if you want to use it internally.  

However, anyone who knows anything about computers will start asking questions when they see the easy to remove side of the ps3 that has in huge letters HDD on it.  And with those questions, comes reading the manual, and when you read the manual you clearly see that its simple to change the HDD.
