Earlier this May, supposed “leaked” photos from a Chinese plant showed what’s reported to be the PS3 Slim. The German Amazon site now has a listing for “PlayStation 3 Konsole slim”.
Googling the product code number does not show anything else but this listing on Amazon.de.
Retailer listings of unannounced products are always fishy. Ditto for this.
I work for a major games retailer (take your pick) and we’ve been told by Sony that a new model is arriving end of August, with the PS3 80gb now discontinued. Sony refuse to confirm but your bets are on the slim.

I’d say there’s a more than slim chance the rumours are true…

Anyone else in retail care to verify this?

Aww man, I only got my ps3 in January and it’s already outdated?

It’s not likely they will put anything new in it. Only thing i could think of is the backwards compability which they took out after launch.
