MS are to scrap the mid range 'Premium' 20 gb Hardrive console and replace it with their flagship black 120gb Hardrive ' Elite' Console , which will be price dropped to the to the RRP of the out going 'Premium' console , and plans continue to keep the 'Arcade' model on sale as well .
The Arcade model is seen by MS as a low price entry level to Hi Def gaming / 2nd Console , plus a cheap alternative choice to the Nintendo Wii, as well a inexpensive way to replace old broken models cheaply at under £100. thats outta warranty.
Very sensible IMHO.
The pricedrop is due summer / autum.
Sony ARE to pricedrop the PS3 over the same time period this year , plus reveal a newer slimline ( size & content) model PS3 , but are still not that keen on talking about it yet, but a PS3 price drop will happen this year for sure.
