After talking with many developers and industry analysts CNN is predicting a $500 price tag for the PS3. The main reason for the price jump is the Blu-Ray components. After a CES announcement that the first stand-alone Blu-Ray player would cost $1,800 speculation began anew about the PS3s price. Developers have quoted between 399-699, and Merrill Lynch estimated the PS3s cost, a little over a month after E3, at $494 without labor.

Interesting. I suppose we can only wait and see.
Then again, that's actually not that much. In pounds that comes to just over £250. I was expecting something like £300 and over.
Of course, it's a lot more than the 360, but you are paying for something that does a lot more, and is better. 
You've got to admire Sony though. They have the most restraint I've ever seen. No-one but those high up in Sony know any od the details. For a big company, and for a massive console, they sure have kept us in the dark extremely well.
