If the PS3 could have been made cheaper to produce, why is it still the cheapest Blu-Ray player? That doesn't make sense to me. A standalone Blu-Ray has less components than a PS3, and they're still more expensive?

Conclusion: the PS3 still is very expensive to produce.

Oh and on sales: the PS3 seems to be catching up. It will probably sell more than the 360 will this year. But the 360 will still have the largest user base and just as important: a larger game attach ratio.
