Report: PS3 $499 on July 12

I hope the 20GB one drops to $399.99. Then it can actually compete with 360, and maybe it'll push sony to bring it back somewhat. But then again... nothing's stopping Microsoft from dropping 360's price too. (If reports are right though, they have a ton of stock they need to sell too)

I'm kinda like deathshand here, I'm hesitating big time to buy either of them. This is definently a step in the right direction though.

There is no 20GB model. It was taken down shortly after launch to save on production costs because very few people were buying it. It could buy due to them producing more 60GB versions, and the first few buyers wanting the best version they can get their hands on. Still a wise move.
