    LOL, thanks Nav. ;) I actually tried fixing my 'phat' today first via an oven-based reflow - it did in fact correct *that* problem, but unfortunately I think I literally toasted something else, I suspect on the I/O because I get no picture or audio feed out of either analog or HDMI. I would've liked to have been on the 45nm RSX bandwagon, but my ship needs to sail early I think.

    Well except that these things come from Japan in through the West Coast. If it were a BMW, sure, I'd expect to have it first.

    Wouldn't that affect everyone and all SKUs if they streamline their inventory level ? (unless you're overstocked or stuffed)

    So about a 15% power saving. It'd be nice for any Spreadsheet Fiends if there existed a comparison of consoles and power drops over the years, to see how the current boxes are tracking with older systems and each other.

    It appears the PS3 drought is ending in a big way judging by GAF posts and my own occasional checks of online stock.

    Amazon also has slapped a "newest version" callout on the PS3's product page, suggesting it's the new revision. http://www.amazon.com/PlayStation-3...vg_5/186-2074136-0959063?ie=UTF8&s=videogames

    A gaf poster said Amazon has more than 1000 120GB's. There's a way to tell Amazon stock up to 1k units.

    Amazon's "newest version" claim has been up for a while though, and none of the folk that have received any of these have thrown up the flag on their being 2100. I called Amazon last week to see if they could verify one way or the other, and they cannot. As far as retail and consumers are concerned, 'newest version' equates to Slim, not the revisions within that form factor, which for most people should be completely transparent. It's only tech enthusiasts (and others that for some reason latch on as well) that will be following that specific change in hardware innards.
