Thought this was relevant as AU stocks are typically the EU versions.
So if it's March 07 for EU....does this mean AUG 07 for AU?!

Omg ps3 delayed means ps3 mod chip delayed as well :P

[lovesil]

Damn......PS3 FTW though! In anyway, i always plan to get one 0.5 yr or 1 yr after it's launch. No point paying the initial 1G, which is too much for a console.

does anyone know if have they released a $AU RRP?

Omg ps3 delayed means ps3 mod chip delayed as well :P

you and your dodgey stuff erik

[hebe]

does anyone know if have they released a $AU RRP?

Along the lines of $700 for the basic pack and $900 for the beefed up one...

ie $700 only has 20gig hdd, no HDMI or WIFI AFAIK...whereas the $900 one has both WIFI & HDMI plus a 60gig hdd.

does anyone know if have they released a $AU RRP?

well thats why i asked about the rumour thing, if there is going to be 2 editions, one basic console which they said will be priced at about 600-800au and the upgraded HD one which will be at about 1000au. oh look, i found out myself. lol.

Available in two bundles: Base model (RRP AU$829) features PS3 with a 20GB hard drive. Upgrade model (RRP AU$999) features 60GB hard drive, built-in 802.11b/g wireless, card slots and HDMI output
