PS3 Price is down

Culver City (CA) - Over 100,000 PS3 consoles were sold in the US last week, thanks largely to the introduction of a lower-priced $400 version.

Sony CEO Howard Stringer told the Associated Press that number was significantly greater than most weekly sales for the system, which is falling in competition against the Wii and Xbox 360.

The price of the current PS3, which has an 80 GB hard drive, was cut by $100 two weeks ago to bring it down to around $500. That caused weekly sales to be around 75,000 units. Then, last week Sony launched a 40 GB version of the console, causing another spike in sales.
