Under this confidential document of questions and answers, discussed it summarizes, summarized the key points of the eight major, next will be a one for all of us to do an in-depth analysis and comment. "Information exposure" that portion of the content is derived from the confidential file, but it is actually a lot about PS3 revealed new secrets. The author will give everybody pointed out and join the appropriate forecast.
Key hotspots: listing date, price, availability
Information exposure: PS3 global first quantity is 200 million units (of the starts on sale 3 weeks), to the end of December of this year reached 400 million units in 2007, cumulative reach 600 million units. On sale in Japan on November 11, on sale at the time the rest of Asia and Japan, Europe and the sale of time for 17 November this year. Two versions of PS3 host will depend on the different parts of the episode when demand adjustments.
In-depth comments: first, in the PS3 's suppliers, top secret information referred to in the first episode 200 million units, 06 years 400 million units, 07 03 bottom 600 million (FY ended 06), basically the SONY announcement before, now the question is can the SONY PS3 listing of half a year guaranteed global cash supply. Secondly, for the first time in the top secret information revealed the PS3 in other parts of Asia, is on sale at the time and the Japan native, is November 11. It is expected that the above mentioned in other parts of Asia, should be included in the Sales Department of PS before mainstream host many accomplishments in Korea, Hong Kong, Taiwan and other regions. As regards domestic PS3 mainstream's time-to-market, although it is still not what the latest news, but at least not until after March 2007. Additionally, for 20G version and availability of 60G Edition, information mentioned, according to the different parts of the episode when demand to make an adjustment, normally is very necessary, because each region on both versions PS3 demand there will be a big difference. Believe that cheaper 20G version in the Asian region will be more popular, and the power of strong configuration higher 60G version will be more popular in Europe and America.
Key hotspots: color
Information on the exposure: the first PS3 host will have only one choice of black, but the future is likely to launch a host of other colors.
In-depth review: Microsoft's XBOX and Nintendo GBA series and NDS series, has launched various versions of different colors, including a very bright and lively colors, as well as some of the many colorful inclusion together version, launched multiple colored version was designed to meet the more young people's taste. As for SONY, this world-level brand style, always give people a feeling of calm and Yuen, they launched the generation game appearance color you can see above. You may wish to think back to before the PS2 and PSP has launched different color versions: black, white, grey, silver, blue, red, in fact, are relatively simple. Black has always been a PS Series host primary colors, PS3 listing period only black color, I do not think anything unexpected, but from SONY Pictures announced before, white and Silver PS3, how long should not be expected to be launched, homeopathy with a commemorative theme or a heavyweight game listing and launched.
Key hotspots: origin, production time
Information exposure: PS3 host production will be held this summer in Japan and China at the start, but the specific time and manufacturer's name not disclosed, but the PS3 uses major semiconductor chip has started production.
In-depth review: normal, a new host should be listed for the 3 months to six months is expected to begin production, otherwise it is very easy to create the first period stock supply shortage, so the PS3 in the summer, which is now production is performed according to the normal schedule. As for the PS3 uses major semiconductor chips, some by SONY's factories, while others are handed over to the partners,
The sooner you put into production, increase productivity as soon as possible is necessary, having heard that the PS3 's CELL CPU "," current status of the production capacity is not a very satisfactory and improve yield also takes time.Host of origin, the PS3 's production operations in Japan and China at the same time expand, do not feel surprised. In Japan the production of the PS3 is basically the supplier to the Japan market and other parts of Asia, and China production of PS3, supply is mainly correspond to European and American markets. From the beginning, SONY PS2 era with domestic several great OEM manufacturers to maintain a good relationship of cooperation, from 5 series of mainstream machines PS2, and 7 series PS2 slim machine, and later of the PSP, the majority of the stock is made of domestic OEM manufacturers, producing area in Shenzhen, Dongguan factory or the OEM manufacturer's name, for many are familiar with the hardware industry friends are familiar.
Key hotspots: price, expected loss
Information on sale of the exposure: the PS3 will not affect the annual financial reports. PS3 is not for sale two versions, but only two specifications different models only, like ordinary PC.
In-depth review: SONY PS3 to further emphasize on sale two specifications different model, not the two versions, the estimated mean and XBOX360. Because the PS3 's two models, the host configuration and the functionality is very different from the hard drive, HDMI support, wireless network support, reader number and so on all have distinct differences. While the two versions of the XBOX360, it is an external hard drive and handle connection (wireless or wired), itself a host function is the same. SONY has repeatedly stressed this aspect of the content, is nothing more than to let consumers know two PS3 really exist in nature, so the difference between the $ 100 price is reasonable, and not only as the XBOX360 to sales will host into two versions. In addition, although the prices of PS3 at 499/$ 599, but it is generally believed that even if the PS3 selling so expensive, it still is making a loss delivery because the cost of the PS3 is too high (CELL, RSX, Blu-ray BD-ROM are expensive goods), the sale of SONY PS3 is not annual financial impact, it is estimated that unlikely.
Key hotspots: network services, services
Information exposure: PS3 network service system has been completed, the content of the basic service will be completely free, although some content and specific service project will begin charging a fee.
In-depth review: the content, in fact, SONY has no associated detailed instructions, but by the XBOX360 itself network services "XBOX LIVE!" will do quite well, but the player on the war between the Internet, Exchange, communicate, and download a variety of resources, are the next generation of video game one of the most important part, believe that SONY has also not be careless. Provisional name of "PlayStation Network Platform" (internal code-named PSNP), will provide the XBOX LIVE account management phase is intended to be, information communication, integral and download capabilities, basic service content completely free of charge. In fact, SONY in the early before it has been announced, next we will look at the content on the part of the fees, estimated to play online games and download some new information on the 88th to charges. As regards the charges, the author estimated maximum and "XBOX LIVE!" balanced, "XBOX LIVE!" expensive.
