PS3 price drop on the 15th?

HOPE THIS TURNS OUT TO BE TRUE PS3 price drop on the 15th?
seems one of their E3 announcements may be out of the bag already.



Quote:
We received an e-mail from a supposed employee of retail chain Circuit City who claims he wishes to remain anonymous. The employee claims that the store receives its ads 2 weeks in advance and he has seen the ad for July 15th to the 21st, which has the PS3 advertised for $100 less than normal at a retail price of $499.99. Sony will still allow for the five Blu-ray movies offer to be used in conjunction with the price cut, and the new price may be announced during E3


Picture came from another CC employee who was skeptical and went to check it out and found the ad.

it's unclear if this is a sony Pricedrop or a CC "sale" other CC employee's are saying it has to come from Sony because they are not allowed to put sales on consoles unless the Manufacturer tells them to, as they are the ones who set the prices not the stores.

I really don't see how the wii is outselling the xbox. I know it is, I just don't see how. Is there anything fun to play of the wii besides the sports pack?

Elite-479
Regular-399
Core-299

No idea what the difference between them are except the core and regular have different harddrives I think.
