I want to buy a ps3 but idk if i should now or wait for the two new confirmed models to come out. CECH-2001A and B , and also when do you guys think these machines will come out? u think this is the reason for the recent ps3 shortages? http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/22/sony-slips-two-new-ps3-slim-models-through-the-fcc/

Just buy one now. I don't think anybody knows when these new models are coming out. In fact this is the first time of me hearing about it.

I don't see why there will be new models since the slim is going well.

Kotaku posted something about these new models awhile ago. Most think they are just GOW3 bundles or FF13 bundles. Me personally I think it is going to be a 1TB PS3 Slim

I believe they'll treat newer versions of the PS3 like they did the psp: Slightly upgraded but not too much different from their predecessor. Hah, like PS3 Brite and PS3 3000 :P
Now's a good time to get the ps3 since it's a good price, but it really depends on what games you want for it, and with GOW3 and Final fantasy 13 on the way in the next few days, now's a better time than any.

I actually heard about this a while back but have not hear anything about when they are coming out. I think its just going to be a more slimmer and more efficient ps3 slim. I would go ahead and buy one right now since theres no date confirmed for them.

as PS3 News suggests, maybe Sony has just found new manufacturers for the same chips and had to run them through the validation committee again.

This.

Go ahead and buy one now if you can find it. I can't see every place in NYC being sold out. If it turns out you can't find one try hitting online at Best Buy or Amazon.

How old are you TC, and depends on how long u could wait. I could wait to get a PS3 considering i use my itouch more, but only since its portable. if u want wait. And like everyone else said, this is the first time ive heard of these new models.

But the Slim that is out now, or a 40GB fat PlayStation 3, they are the two best models.

Just but one now...if you can find one. From what I've read it's pretty much the same thing just different manufactures.
