[RUMOR]White PS3 to EU and US - Mar 03, 2008 03:51

According to unnamed sources at CC, cited by website Kotaku, employees have been taking in stock of a new model PS3 stamped with code " CECHH01”, which has previously been associated with the white PS3.

CC staff claim to have been told, presumably by Sony, to expect a new 40GB model without a free movie, suggesting the white PS3 will initially be offered in the 40GB capacity. It' s said the white PS3s will be held in stock until all remaining bundles comprising a 40GB PS3 with a Blu-ray copy of Spiderman 3 have been sold.

Sony took up its established “deny all” stance long ago, talking down rumours of a white PS3 in January, despite the appearance of documents filed by the company with the US Federal Communications Commission that seemed to suggest one was en-route to the US and Europe.

Arrival of a white PS3 only in the US would be disappointing for dedicated European gamers, who only have two 40GB PS3 bundles to look forward to in the coming weeks. Japanese gamers will be quietly pleased with themselves though, because the region’s already taken delivery of a ceramic white PS3 and a satin silver model goes on sale there next week for ¥39,900 (£185/€220/$370). ®

I never seen it in person but I dont like the look of the white ps3.
Change is inevitable. Except from a vending machine.

I' m not crazy about white on any console, although I think I would like a white Wii better than a black one.

I' ve seen one painted white. I don' t think I' d like a flat finish, but the gloss I saw was sexy. I' d be afraid to dirty it up quite honestly though. The white DS lites get rather gross if you don' t wipe them off with a cloth once and a while, and the finish is disgusting if you' ve ever seen one from a smoking household.

Id like the white PS3, but im not gonna buy one, since i already have the black.

I have a none smoking household, the PS3 is positioned on a shelf, so it shouldnt get to greased.

Besides black shows dust a lot more than white does.

I will always prefer my electronics in black, simply because most electronics are, and therefore it is easier to match the different finishes if they are all black. Though, if I was very very rich, I could see myself purposely outfitting my setup in all white.

I' m glad to see more electronics coming in ceramic black. So far about half of my theater setup is ceramic black. I just need a ceramic xbox and reciever and I will be there.

black should be the default colour of all electronics.
