PS3 Slim is True-Along with a $100 Price Drop

It turns out Sony's rumored PS3 Slim is true after all. And, if a slimmer, badder PS3 weren't enough, they are also going to drop the price to $299, putting in line with its competitor the Xbox 360.

It will come with a 120GB hard drive (more then my old Dell!) and will be 36% lighter, 32% smaller, and use 34% less power then the original (that's a lot of percents). There will also be a Bravia Sync feature that will allow you to use you Bravia TV remote to control your PS3. It will go on sale in the first week of September, with a $300 price for all the models.

Sony will also be eliminated the option of installing Linux on the Slim so don't even try. (yet...) There will also be a vertical stand that will be selling September 3rd for $24. Also, there will only be 2 USB ports.
