New Playstation 3 Console (PS3) Being Released

Yes, a new PS3 model is being released with a few incremental changes that improve upon the current Playstation Slim.

New features:

• Less power consumption. From 230 watts to 200 watts.
• Weight reduction. From 3 kgs to 2.6 kgs.  (400 grams.. really Sony?)
• Power and eject buttons no longer have any LED lights (not confirmed just yet)

So yes, they are rather small additions that have been made to the interior moreso than the exterior of the Playstation console. Unfortunately there will be no price drop for the console, but it is a great thing to see a large multinational corporation 'going green'.
