Unluckily for them, they actually took apart one of them, and uploaded an exposed CPU which proved them to be the same Falcon chips users had found on Halo 360's.  Japanese message boards ate this for lunch, and Impress was forced to run a follow-up article in which they finally bothered to use a wattmeter and said, yes, the system does use less power and therefore may be a Falcon chipset.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Muu]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Nov 8th 2007 5:25PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/11/08/sonys-kaz-hirai-says-new-ps3s-use-65nm-chips-after-all-partly/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/11/08/sonys-kaz-hirai-says-new-ps3s-use-65nm-chips-after-all-partly/</guid><description><![CDATA[Can someone tabulate the Sony lies/misinformation over the last year please?

People think "PS3 power" is about how many polys the PS3 can push: it isn't.  It's about how much data it can process at once.  How many objects in the scene it can track at once... with full physics.  How many individual AIs it can run.  Etc.  Power for *gameplay*, not power for *graphics*.  (Not that it's a graphical slouch either.)]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[oGMo]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Nov 8th 2007 6:00PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/11/08/sonys-kaz-hirai-says-new-ps3s-use-65nm-chips-after-all-partly/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/11/08/sonys-kaz-hirai-says-new-ps3s-use-65nm-chips-after-all-partly/</guid><description><![CDATA[soo....how are they going to know what the market wants when nobody's buying PS3's anyways??<br><br>j/k (I own a 60gig model myself....100%bc FTW!!!!)<br><br>My real comment:  The overall market is going to<br>a) be too stupid to realize that the 40gig models aren't backward compatible, or<br>b) won't care because they already own a PS2<br>]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[umm....hello???]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Nov 8th 2007 6:22PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/11/08/sonys-kaz-hirai-says-new-ps3s-use-65nm-chips-after-all-partly/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/11/08/sonys-kaz-hirai-says-new-ps3s-use-65nm-chips-after-all-partly/</guid><description><![CDATA[Or they don't care, like me.  I bought a 20G cause I wanted to replace the drive and didn't need Wifi or card readers.  I have yet to put in any of my old games and play them.  I have one of the 2 SKUs with full BC and I've only used it to test the old games to see them work on it.  Otherwise, it's been pretty pointless for me.  Maybe the EBay value will go up if they decide to totally drop BC.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Andir3.0]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Nov 8th 2007 6:46PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/11/08/sonys-kaz-hirai-says-new-ps3s-use-65nm-chips-after-all-partly/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/11/08/sonys-kaz-hirai-says-new-ps3s-use-65nm-chips-after-all-partly/</guid><description><![CDATA[how easy is it to upgrade the hard drive?
