PS1 had a smaller version, PS2 has a smaller version and I am fully confident that PS3 will have a smaller version which I expect to come out in 2010. I am sure that with a smaller PS3 model plus a price drop would send PS3 selling to the stratosphere ! its true it happened with the PS1&2 so ofcourse same will happen with the PS3.

This is an amazing strategy from Sony because by 2010  all the consoles will be old and most people might lose interest then BANG! here comes the slimline PS3 and the sales increase worldwide.

I'm buying a PS3 in September and I will most likely buy a slimeline PS3 in 2010, will you ?

i doubt it. the slim line ps2 wasn't as good as the regular especially the fact that it had no fan just a vent.

Well there is a lot of junk in the ps3's trunk, so it wont be that slim, but im sure they will release a redisigned model some time.

I wouldn't mind buying a slimmer PS3 then, just as long as it retains its shinyness.

You never know, PS3 might be slimmer then you think I mean the redesign PS2 is slim but when I actually got it I found that it is smaller then I thought.

I definitely believe that their will be a redisign PS3 but it wont come out for a few years.

Yes I will buy the PSthree.  By then I will have a house, and rooms to fill.  I can hook my "old" PS3 up to the guest room tv and keep the slim one in mine...  :)

Actually, you are wrong my friend. The PS2 did not have a fan. It only had a vent, but because it was using Centrino portable technology a fan wasn't need as opposed to fat PS2.

45 nm is a great piece of technology... would you consider waiting in your case? if you still don't have the game console though

I wouldn't expect a slim version as soon as 2010, thats only 3 years away.
Take a look at previous PlayStations, PSX launched in 1994 (Japan) and the PSOne launched in 2000. Thats 6 years to come out with a smaller version.
Playstation 2 launched in 2000, and the Slim PS2 launched late in 2004. Thats just over 4 years, a year and a bit shy of the 6 years to make a smaller PSX.


Now take in to consideration on how expensive the PS3 is, and they will want to really push the 60GB one (as seen over the past month of the 20GB fading out) I wouldn't expect a Slim PS3 for at least 5 years.

BUT...do you know PStwo is cheaper to make? thus giving sony a bigger profit...so i think they will want to invest in a PSthree, but i doubt they would call it a PSthree if it is released in 2008
