I'm not getting it, but it is sexy. Of course, I wonder how people are going to mod THAT.

probably the same way they mod it now, just chip the muthuh. Slidecard and fliptops though, that's done
I'm gonna get one, because it's all like "shit yo, i'm slim"
i don't use the HDD anyway
This machine costs much less to produce, so they're maybe the costs of PS3 and PSP will be lowered (wishful thinking)

That's a good point. If they can make a PS2 that small and sell it for that cheap, then it's more probable that they can do that for PS3 as well. I'm not sure about the PSP. I believe it is still going to retail around $200.

Well, maybe they are sliming the PS2 down to prevent future modding? Im sure tring to get a modchip to fit in sometrhing like that must be rather hard

THey just did it to appeal to the stragglers who don't have one. They made the PSOne long after the original PS came out, which was just a small version of it. This is is the same deal. I very highly doubt it has anything to do with any future consoles.
