Oh sure, complain that Microsoft is adding another 360 unit called the Elite, but within a month's time you are doing the opposite and now making one essentially out of date now. Hmm, we need to weight this one a bit. But hey, at least the 20GB can sit at home and be happy Sony now has shunned them as pariahs and are telling them to their face they made the wrong choice.

From the article:

Just as Microsoft's about to introduce a new Xbox 360 SKU, Sony's announced they're removing one from the marketplace. Sony Computer Entertainment America announced today they've officially dropped the PlayStation 3 20GB SKU and will no longer be offering the cheaper, Wi-Fi less model to North American retailers. Sony says a 10-to-1 retailer demand for the 60GB SKU has prompted the move.

Don't panic, though, as 20GB owners will continue to receive the same customer service support they were guaranteed upon purchasing the machine. The architecture between the 20GB and 60GB SKUs are the same, save for a few feature differences, so the shift is minimal from a customer relations and development perspective -- unlike Microsoft, who cannot drop support for the Core SKU, as that model doesn't come with a built-in hard drive.
