I don't know the details of the price, but since the original version, they've:
  • Removed the Emotion Engine
  • Removed the Graphics Synthesiser
  • Removed 2 USB ports
  • Removed the card readers
  • Increased the number of Cell chips per silicon wafer
  • Presumably improved the yeild from the blue laser manufacturing
Not to mention that increased volume on the Cell chip and the blue laser reduce per-part overhead cost. The PS3 definately costs a lot less now than it did at launch.
