Went to Superstore this past weekend and today as well...

 ... saw the PS3 for $659.99, back at the price it was at during launch.

Dunno if this qualifies as a price cut to some people or not, but at least it's not $699.99 anymore.

Anyone else see this new price?

Nah, the dollar is still hanging around the mid-high 80s compared to the US dollar. Good to see some places are reverting back to the original price. I wouldn't necesarily consider it a price cut.

Dollar's still high, it doesn't matter though, whatever low-rice you'll find anywhere, you can get that price at Futureshop and Best Buy as well.

Got it for 649$ CAN at EBGames at launch, it was 699$ CAN at Walmart just across the street... 

Pricedrop? Not likely.  

Price boosted? Probable.

It stayed at 659$ since launch at EB Games and Microplay. Stores charging higher were just getting extra money in their pocket, because Sony didn't change its price.

No, EB Games and Microplay still have it at 659$, they never raised it.

No if you check sony st yle.ca it lists the PS3 as $699.99 now... they raised the price since March to match Futureshop/Bestbuy.
