Sony Dropped the Price of Playstation 3 to $249 Globally [Report]

    Finally, Sony has officially anounced the cuts in the pricce of Playstation 3. PS3 160 GB Model is now available for $249 and €250 in Europe, being dropped from the original price tag of $299 . And Sony will now sell the 320GB version of the PlayStation 3 for $299 instead of $349. This price drop has been considered worldwide. So this price drop will somehow effect the market of Xbox 360 as it is the best selling console in US.



    Sony is also hoping to regain lost ground from its main rival, Microsoft Corp, which makes the Xbox. It announced the cuts a week after sales for new games suffered their lowest month in nearly five years, according to retail research firm NPD.
    After a rough year of consistent hacks on Sony's PlayStation Network and other online services, the price cut is likely put in place to boost PS3 sales and stay competitive with Microsoft's Xbox 360.
    “In addition, a limited edition inFAMOUS 2 bundle is now available at participating retailers across North America. The bundle retails for $299 and includes a 320 GB PlayStation 3, a copy of inFAMOUS 2 and a 30-day membership to PlayStation Plus,” SCEA’s CEO Jack Tretton wrote on the official blog.

    Sony's biggest current bet is the Vita, a light-weight handheld device with flashy graphics. Game blogs have lit up with criticism over its launch date and price. It will face a tough fight from Nintendo, which lowered the price of its handheld 3DS more than 30 percent only four months after it hit stores in the United States.

    Sony said the new pricing would take immediate effect in Europe and start on August 18 in Japan.

Sony S1 And S2 Tablet to Feature Android 3.2 [Leaked Screenshot] [Details]

    Sony Announced their first and Two new Tablets Sony S1 and S2 in late April 2011. These tablets are due to release in this fall. It was already believed that these new tablets will feature Android 3.1 Honeycomb OS. But now an screenshot has been leaked by Carrypad that suggests that these tablets will feature Android 3.2. So this Android 3.2 is the last major build expected before Google’s Ice Cream Sandwich OS, it also have the new app-zoom feature.



    CarryPad claims that they've seen the leaked documents of Sony S1 and S2 tablets, In which it has been revealed that they will have the new Android 3.2. Here's what they've got:




    It's good to know that S1 and S2 will feature Android 3.2 because there are still lots of Tablet owners who haven't got the Android 3.1 update.


    Other than that, We already knew that Sony would be including its Sony PlayStation Suite software on the tablets, but now it appears Sony will add Zinio and an official Chumby application into it.


    Chumby (app) is a sort of internet companion that’s designed for a bedside table. Sony’s Dash ‘Internet Viewer’ is powered by the Chumby OS, so it makes sense that the S1 and S2 will be able to use the Chumby app to fill a Dash-like role, though the redundancy between Chumby and the ‘Dash Dock’ is perplexing.
    here the screenshot shows the availability of Chumby App in S1 and S2:



    And this one shows the pre installed Zinio App in these tablets:




    Unfortunately, it looks like the company used a proprietary charging port as well, which means you’ll be out of luck if you need a charge and didn’t bring your adapter with you!




    As these tablets are launching this fall, AT&T has already promised to carry the S2 but it has yet to name a price or launch date.
