there's alot in your post, but the only thing i'm going to address is your argument about bundling blu-ray. the argument is valid only on the basis that the ps3 is packing in alot of features for the price. there's no arguing that sony has put alot of features into their console for $600. but honoring their accomplishment is akin to praising a z06 for competing with cars twice as expensive. sure it's quite an accomplishment, but how many people are willing to dish out $65k for a car? what's more, what good would a blu-ray player be if the standard isn't widely adopted? hd-dvd players are already available for $400. blu-ray players are $1,000. now, what kind of player will most people buy? blu-ray = memory stick = betamax.
