Schlägt Sony dieselbe Taktik wie Microsoft ein? Setzt Sony wirklich alles dran im Handheldmarkt zu bestehen?
Das steht jedenfalls in einem Artikel auf gamespy.com:
But moving on to the PSP itself, the price is insane! A friend in Japan suggests that Sony will be losing over $350 per unit manufactured, and looking at how advanced the tech is I wouldn't be surprised. Taking such a huge hit on hardware is unprecedented, and makes Microsoft's early Xbox losses look modest in comparison. It tells me that Sony really, really wants to be a handheld player for the long haul, and that it'll do anything possible to captures and hold a nice chunk of that market.
Die Produktion eines PSP soll rund 350$ kosten. Das könnte bei den Features und Leistungen des Gerätes gut angehen.
