3M Xbox 2 Units In Dec. Quarter retailing between $249 and $299 ?
>> Forbes.com is reporting that Goldman Sachs (a research firm) said it's unlikely Microsoft will discontinue production of the Xbox videogame console when the Xbox360 is launched.
They expect the Xbox360 (that will be presented May 12th on MTV in North America and May 13th internationally as reported in previous news) will be available for retail sale in October or November 2005 at a retail price of about $249 to $299. The current Xbox console would stay available to cover the lower-end of the consumer segment - pretty much like Sony did with the original Playstation when the PS2 was released.
Goldman Sachs expects Microsoft will ship about 3 million Xbox 360 consoles worldwide in the December 2005 quarter.
The Sony PS3, that will be presented a few days before E3 in May, will probably not be available in US stores before mid. 2006. Japan could still get a PS3 launch in the fourth quarter of 2005, but it's unlikely according to the research firm.
