The current PS3 bundle offered by Sony may be a limited-time offer, according to an e-mail sent by Sony to a dissatisfied customer.
The customer, who was unhappy having bought a PS3 before the bundle was introduced, recieved the following message:
A Sony representative confirmed to SPOnG that the passage is from a genuine Sony e-mail. The message from Sony, however, was mixed. When we asked whether the current deal will, in fact, end at a "predetermined date", we were told "It's for the foreseeable future."
While the future of the bundle remains unclear, SPOnG will be extremely surprised if Sony reverts back to the pre-bundle price and package. If the bundle is a limited "offer" and set to end, it's more likely that Sony will replace it with another bundle or a price cut.
Sony has confirmed that in Australia the current deal - which is the same as ours - will end on August 31st.

Let's just accept it, in the long run all this isn't going to make any difference at all.
All this news, these rumours and bundle offers are just killing time until the end of the year when Sony can make a price cut to seriously enter the PS3 into the market and not lose any face.
