March 23rd For PS3 Launch
So, it’s going to be March 23rd for PAL PS3 – at least according to Threespeech.com – which describes itself thus, “You could say we're 'semi official’.”

The site is managed by PR company Up-Comms, which states that Threespeech is used for:
”…building relations with the bloggers, channelling them information from Sony”.


In regards to the launch date, Threespeech.com has published the following:
”…you may have heard that Sir Howard Stringer, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Sony Corporation, was quoted as saying the launch was going to be in April. We can confirm that this was a mistake and that everything is still being lined up for the March 23 launch date!

This ‘update’ also addresses the question regarding 20Gb PS3s at launch in the UK.
” We’ve been told the 20GB model of the PS3 won’t be available in the UK during the inital launch window. The reason being that, having consulted with retailers, Sony expect demand for the 60GB model to significantly outstrip that for the 20GB model.”

Whether the blog is extrapolating from Sony’s official update today or it actually does have the inside gen (pun intended) we’re still waiting to hear… totally officially.
