Look at it this way - you get a HDTV for the best price you can negotiate AND you get a PS3 as well. Sounds like a pretty good deal to me.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Scott]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Dec 26th 2007 8:23PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Buy a 1080p BRAVIA and Sony Australia will toss in a PS3 for free]]></title><link>http://hd.engadget.com/2007/12/26/buy-a-1080p-bravia-and-sony-australia-will-toss-in-a-ps3-for-fre/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://hd.engadget.com/2007/12/26/buy-a-1080p-bravia-and-sony-australia-will-toss-in-a-ps3-for-fre/</guid><description><![CDATA[Here is what was said when Toshiba started this a few days ago...<br><br><br>h4ldol <br>@ Dec 22nd 2007 7:40PM<br>D... e... s... p... e... r... a... t... i... o... n...<br><br>]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Mike]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Dec 26th 2007 11:48AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Buy a 1080p BRAVIA and Sony Australia will toss in a PS3 for free]]></title><link>http://hd.engadget.com/2007/12/26/buy-a-1080p-bravia-and-sony-australia-will-toss-in-a-ps3-for-fre/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://hd.engadget.com/2007/12/26/buy-a-1080p-bravia-and-sony-australia-will-toss-in-a-ps3-for-fre/</guid><description><![CDATA[Sony US has a similar promotion for the last few months. Buy an HDNA TV using your Sony Points (Sony Card is required) and get a free PS3. Unfortunately it requires you to spend $300,000 on Sony card (less if Sony merchandise was purchased, which counts as several points per dollar). Also, as Locke correctly points out, price difference with Amazon is such that one can by from Amazon, get PS3 and still be better off in the end]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Alex]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Dec 26th 2007 8:00PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Buy a 1080p BRAVIA and Sony Australia will toss in a PS3 for free]]></title><link>http://hd.engadget.com/2007/12/26/buy-a-1080p-bravia-and-sony-australia-will-toss-in-a-ps3-for-fre/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://hd.engadget.com/2007/12/26/buy-a-1080p-bravia-and-sony-australia-will-toss-in-a-ps3-for-fre/</guid><description><![CDATA[Desperation is when a company employs firesale tactics in order to survive a format "war" that it is losing, and losing big-time.  When Sony, which has an even more dominating lead in Australia than in the U.S., to the tune of 6:1 HDM sales, makes this sort of move, it is clearly strategic and not a last gasp to survive at any cost.  A grab at the jugular, so to speak, to finally put HD DVD out of its misery after months of declining sales and market share.  Japan is already 9:1 blu-ray over HD DVD, and Europe will be next, currently at 4:1 sales advantage.  The U.S., sadly, is the slowest to follow (no doubt secondary to Walmart's now infamous firesale of 1080i cheapies and the "Joe 6-pack effect"), but it shouldn't take more than another quarter or two now that Warner will be hopping aboard soon.  Hello Warner.  Adios HD DVD... you tried your best, but now it's time to step aside for the blu-ray juggernaut.  ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[h4ldol]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Dec 26th 2007 12:00PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Buy a 1080p BRAVIA and Sony Australia will toss in a PS3 for free]]></title><link>http://hd.engadget.com/2007/12/26/buy-a-1080p-bravia-and-sony-australia-will-toss-in-a-ps3-for-fre/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://hd.engadget.com/2007/12/26/buy-a-1080p-bravia-and-sony-australia-will-toss-in-a-ps3-for-fre/</guid><description><![CDATA[it doesn't only work if you say it.
