Sony's PSX tanks in Japan

PSX

The domestic release of the PSX, Sony's souped-up version of the PlayStation 2 that comes with a built-in hard drive and can double as a digital video recorder, keeps getting pushed back and pushed back (the earliest we've heard it might arrive here is 2005), and the latest news that sales have been so god-awful bad in Japan that retailers there have slashed prices almost in half, certainly isn't going to encourage the wise men who run the company to bring this out here any sooner. That is assuming they haven't just killed the thing altogether, which might not be such a bad idea at this point.
