I agree. They also already have dual standard product coming out too that will play both. Either way, it's a mess when this happens and it sucks for the end user. Especially if you get invested in one standard, and another takes the cake - ala VHS/Beta wars.
With that said, I know that the PS3 will still sell well. I just think that it isn't going to be nearly as good as the PS2 launch. There is just too much viable competition out there right now, and I still feel the price point is way too high. If they were to hit $399.99 for the 20gb version, with HDMI, and the 60 gb version at $449.99, then I think people would be going crazy over it.
