ewhac writes: "iSuppli has just published the results of their tear-down of the Sony PS3. According to their estimates, Sony is losing $241 per unit for the PS3 with the 20Gig hard disk, and $306 for the 60Gig version. By contrast, the 20Gig Xbox 360 of today costs $75 less than it's $500 price tag. Even given the high BOM of the Sony, however, iSuppli describes the PS3 as a sophisticated, cutting-edge design. Other choice details include the 400 Watt power supply, and the three custom ASICs, each with over 1200 pins."
