E3 2006: PS3 Pricing Announced
Well after alot of debating by many industry analysts, the PS3 pricing was finally announced. The PS3 will come in two SKUs, the 399EUR version without HDMI, memory card or 802.11 b/g wireless and the 599EUR version everything.
It is also intriguing the PS3 wireless does not include the more recent addiction of 802.11a, especially as 802.11b/g has far more devices using those standards of wireless. Time will tell if this is upgraded to include 802.11a or wait for the new 802.11e in the final stages of standardisation.
Also raising concerns and picking holes in Microsoft approach when the Xbox 360 rollout in two SKUs, Sony now appears to see the benefit and enter the market with the same approach.
