New PS3 production specifications

Silver Mirror | October 01, 2007 | News | Playstation 3 
With the news that Sony were getting a new manufacturer for the PS3 console the Internet has been ablaze on just what the differences will be. Will a cheaper console downgrade the great performance rate the PS3 is known for? Luckily a person at RumourReporter.com has studied some of the changes made and so far the news is looking good
1.) The new PS3 model uses less power than the other models. This one uses 3A (Power Measurement), while the older version use 3.3A and 3.2A respectively.

2.) The new PS3 will include a brand-new controller, most likely the recently announced Dual-Shock 3 (this is proven in the document)

3.) The new PS3’s Wi-Fi and Bluetooth hardware has seen a significant upgrade, possibly allowing for longer distances and even faster connections.

4.) I’ve heard dripplings of a 65nm chipset coming soon. Could this model be the very first in the line of quieter, less-power consuming PS3 models?

I’ve attached all of the images that I have below. But let’s get to the point… a 40GB PS3 for $399? Maybe. A new PS3 announced in the next two weeks? Count on it.

    A bit irritated at the hardware improvements (since I already have a PS3), but eh, thats the problem with being an early (or earlier) adopter of new systems, you get stiffed in the long run (price drops, improved hardware, free game with the system, etc)...
