New, cheaper PlayStation 3 coming soon

This article says that Sony Corp. is coming out with a newer, and cheaper playstation 3. This low-end model will cost around $399.00, and you won't be able to play playstation 2 games on the playstation 3 system. This system also has a 40gb drive. Microsoft Corps. X-box 360 costs $350.00 and Nintendo Corps. Nintendo Wii costs $250.00. Sony's Playstation 3 comes in at third place, trailing Microsoft and Nintendo.

I think that the only reason Sony is making a cheaper Playstation 3 is because they're hoping more people will buy it because of the reduced price. I think they're just trying to outsell Microsoft and Nintendo and hoping that people won't realize you can't play your playstation 2 games on this new system which can be a pain in the butt. I think it's a good idea to have a cheaper system for people that can't afford the more expensive one but I think it's not fair they can't play playstation 2 games on those systems.
