Best Buy Internal Leak - Sony PS3 80GB To Be Discontinued?
Thanks to what’s purported to be a leaked internal letter sourced from a Best Buy employee it would seem that Sony’s 80GB Playstation console could be discontinued.
The letter, a scan of which was apparently passed to the bods at the PS3 Fanboy site, is cited as stating ‘The 80GB version of the PS3 is going closeout and won’t be replaced at this time,” and continues “It will come off the planogram on Jan. 28. The 60GB version should already be gone from stores. Only the 40GB version of PS3 will be sold in Best Buy stores at this time.
Quite whether this applies merely to Best Buy or whether it hints at the 80GB model being discontinued completely is presently enduring a great degree of speculation on a number of sites at the time of writing – but we’d prefer to sit on the fence at this juncture until some official confirmation (or denial) from Sony is forthcoming (not that denials from Sony tend to be worth the paper they’re written on).
RIP PS3 80GB? Time will tell.

Good Riddance!! Perhaps they will replace it with a configuration better able to serve us PS fans. The Software emulation sucks when trying to play PS2 games – Best move I ever made? Returning it and snapping up one of the last 60GB systems on the shelf. Any replacement NEEDS to have the Emotion Engine!!
