Why not just get a Kuro for these prices? (Actually, less than these prices since the 50" kuro is like $2200 nowadays.) -- And I know they're going away, but they still exist right now.

Why oh why would you not just get a Kuro for these prices? (I know they're going away, but seriously... until they're gone, why would anyone pay $2700 for a 46" lcd when the 50" kuro is $2200?)

Give everyone drobos! Economy solved.

Yup, AT&T Wireless is down again in NYC.

FYI - Lieberman is not a Democrat -- he's an independent.

Actually, there are places in NYC that have PS3s in stock right now. I bought a 60GB one yesterday at the GameStop in NoHo. They got a ton in and I asked the guy how they were selling... he looked at me and shrugged.. "You're the sixth one today to buy one." This was at 8:30pm. Nearly 12 hours of them being in stock. And I was #6.

I asked about the Wiis for curiosity (I have one already) and he laughed. "Those sell out almost immediately when they come in" he said.

I agree though, not having BluRay is a nonstarter for Sony anymore. Without Bluray all the games that are currently out, and all the games in production, will just not work or be pushed back. It's just a non-option.

Taking out the "HD" in the PS3 is also a nonstarter. You think the PS3s crazy horsepower will even be pushed/used pushing 480i/p ? Might as well as cut the power in half at that point too, because the PS3s juice is there for 1080p playing/rendering.
