That is a good deal - Most of the buyers who camped out end up selling theirs on ebay for a much higher price.

The price cut doesn't bother me because I understand rudimentary economics, but what DOES bother me is the lack of support from SONY. I was hoping for backwards compatibility, but I guess that's too much to ask.

Well Sony should of said something to notify us or hinting us that there is going to be a price cut and yes that would be stupid but that way we can trust Sony more

SONY knows or SHOULD know that one of the biggest issues (was) the price and the lack of backwards compatibility for that price (at the time). Production costs are down, and there's absolutely no excuse for SONY not to further support the PS3 and reinstate backwards compatibility for PS2 software. It could be done via software emulation, but SONY are bunch of bums. It's a shame.

People have done research and Sony for sure has done it and they found out it would cost them millions to develop considering you would have to install it on every single PS3 that doesn't have BC which is now most of them

tricked ?? that's funny. MS does the same thing. Last year they reduced their prices with no warning, did they trick people too? I was forced to return my xbox a week later to get the upgraded harddrive for my pro.
