Sony Depletes Inventory of 60GB PS3

Those hoping to get a discount on Sony's PlayStation 3 game console by snapping up the discontinued 60GB model better act fast: Sony says it has completely depleted inventory in its warehouses, which means what's on retail shelves will be the last units available.

In announcing the price drop and the new $599 80GB PS3, Sony said it expected to continue selling the $499 60GB models through the fall. It's not clear what Sony will do once no more 60GB PS3s are available, but analysts speculate the company will lower the 80GB price to $499 to keep sales up at current levels.
