Both parties are bought and paid for by special interests. Screw them both. Neither can justify having my support.

I don't think they care.
Every unit sony sold, sony lost money on.
Every unit sold that wasn't purchased with the intent to play games on, sony lost projected income on.
Either way you look at it, sony will be glad to have rid themselves of those kinds of people.
At that point, it's called a desktop computer and not a console.
Their initial pricing of $99 will be dropped if they find that the demand isn't there.
I wouldn't buy it for any price higher than $35. It isn't worth that much, but I think their price point is to compete with their stand alone products. They would not want to cannibalize their own products especially given the userbase of the iPhone.
You make good points, but by the same logic, I could say that I want a phone that does only phone calls, to save wear and tear on my mp3 player. I could also say I want a palm pilot for a PDA. And a dedicated PVP for video on the go.
In the end, you will have a dozen digital devices, when you could have done it with just one.

That is a good thing. And you can raise taxes accordingly. This helps not only raise money, but also punishes fuel inefficient vehicles. I like this approach much better than the $4500 reward they're giving to people for making poor choices in life.

Lucky for us, the necessity of physical media is quickly going the way of the Dinosaur. Why would we ever need a physical disk to insert into our digital players? It makes no sense.
Why would you expect MORE from the older device? Why would Amazon put out an inferior new device at the same price? Look at what you're saying!
The thing with the kindle is that it includes "free" online access to locate and deliver books. so you can be anywhere and look for and purchase a new book. the book is then delivered to your kindle.
most other ebooks are just displays.
I think until there is any significant threat to kindle, you're going to see the price stay high.
good idea. 1 cent for them, 40 cents for the transaction fee. You really need to jump to $5+ to make it worthwhile. So how long do you think it will take an average user to hit 500 wikipedia searches? I don't know if I've ever visited that many pages.
