(not to me i think it dwarfs the competition out there in everything)
Dwarfing everyone in the price department is usually not such a good thing...

No, they have not them anymore ...but they have all the cards, they just have to play them right.
Joshua made a post recently where he explained quite efficiently why Sony should not price reduce actually.
I agree with his points but ... I think Sony needs an earthquake price related just before this chirstmas season ...
100 € is not enough IMO, but not all company can afford a 45 % price reduction just after launch.
imo, the European launch was actually pretty good. not many launches get ~1m on day 1. by speculation, they've sold 500k to 700k in 1 day, which is pretty good in my eyes.

I'm betting on a $150 or €150 price cut.
In Belgium there where a couple of them left in mediamarkt last friday night. And knowing that the shopping spree starts on saturday, I think they will easily sell out.if it sold that many in Europe then this is a very good indication.
Can you guys reporting your observations in Europe also say where you are from?

Its kinda difficult to make the comparisment with the PS2 launch, because in the benelux (belgium - netherlands - luxemburg ) we got 50.000* PS3 where the PS2 was launched with only 5000 units. So it seems that people will have a less dificult time to find one. I know that I've waited 2 weeks for a PS2.

Are you at the UK?
UK alone cant make a difference. We have to see more countries to make better conclusions
People underestimate the European launch ... the 360 never did very well in Europe. If the initial reports are true, then at launch the PS3 caught up as much as 25% to the 360.
