ok. they rnt gonna pick just 500 people to buy these. theyre gonna pick like maybe 4 times that cause otherwise it wouldnt be called a RACE. whoever pays attention is gonna get one and whoever doesnt will miss out and a good amount wont get a chance so thats wat this whole thing is.

This angers me a bit: This happens to be a "cut down" newer model of the PS3 that amazon is selling. No card reader, 2 USB ports instead of 4 and absolutely no PS2 Backwards capability.

I did some research on the newer consoles with 80GB HDD's in them and that is what i found:

The older 80 GB models with the "CECHExx" model number has all of these features included with the paragraph above. These were manufactured on August of last year. The Newer 80 GB models with the "CECHKxx" model number on the other hand have those features cut out or cut down. These are manufactured on August of this year. Sony states they did this in order to cut production costs. These are the ones amazon is happening to be selling with their $199 deal.
