RUMOR: Gadgehit reported that Sony plans to reveal PSthree in mid-August, a redesigned PS3 that is even smaller and cheaper than the current PS3 Slim model.
Sony has always revised their home consoles towards the end of a console’s life-cycle, so that it is significantly smaller, and cheaper. Whilst some may argue that the current PlayStation 3 is already a PS3 Slim, what they may not know is that Sony asked media outlets specifically not to refer to it as a “PS3 Slim,” but rather the “new PS3.” So a PSthree is definitely still on the cards. GamesCom was the stage for Sony’s PS3 redesign announcement the first time, who’s to say it won’t happen again. The event takes place between 17th to 21st August in 2011, and we’re hoping to be surprised by some PSthree news.

Wow. I may be in the majority here, but I like the look of this re-design. It looks like the PS2 Slim, with the black stripe down the middle, only it doesn't have the pop-up lid like the PS2 did, obviously. But seriously, C'mon SONY, give us our backwards compatible functionality back at a reasonable price and sales would soar!
