"You are kidding right? It's going to take 2 years for devs to start kicking out titles that take full advantage of the hardware.... how long did the last console cycle run? You really should do some research before you post something like this."
If you read the article that you linked, you'll notice that this is nothing more than a revision of the existing console. It's like MS releasing the 360 Elite, not a new console, just new features on the current one. This paragraph from your link highlights this:
"Rather than being an entirely new console, the device will supposedly include the same architecture as the current console but with a new drive bay and attachment area. The new box is said to also include extensive software suite for the managing of content being streamed to a TV or Hi Fi source."
Information from that same source is floating around the web.
This really isn't new information either. Sony has been talking about a "Home Theater Edition" of the PS3 for months. There is supposedly one in the works that will run nearly $1500 and be integrated with a stereo receiever. I read this a long time ago and don't have time to find the article to link.
Following the commercial success (and technical disappointment) of the original Wildfire -- which featured a miserly 528MHz CPU and QVGA display -- HTC has returned with the Wildfire S.

Could help, but reply this one...
According to DailyTech, PS4 is less than 18 months away and we are now 6 months into PS3. 18+6=24, which is ... 2 years.

Additionally, Sony has stated that the PS4 won't come out until at least 2010 on more than one occasion: http://gizmodo.com/gadgets/home-entetainment/playstation-4-coming-in-2010-playstation-3-to-be-media-hub-219190.php
