• Sony will be releasing new portable media player devices that "will focus primarily on video and transferring user-selected content from digital video recorders and other devices using Sony Memory Sticks"
• The Sony PlayStation business is worth approximately $20 billion out of Sony Entertainments's entire $37 billion valuation. (The entire company rakes in $65 billion per year.)
• The PS3 is a Blu-ray trojan horse. According to an anonymous "high-level studio executive," the PS3 will be a "subsidized Blu-ray play that will sell 20 million units. The first HD player will be on the market for $1,000. PS3 could be at $300 or $400. Sony will be selling them at a loss the first six months to a year just to get Blu-ray players out in the market. So studios realize they need to have their content on it."
• "PS3 will be bundled with a selection of preloaded films, TV programs and games"
