20GB Playstation 3 To Also Come With HDMI Now  by James B at 16:08

Playstation
Sony announced today that the 20GB Playstation 3 will now also come with HDMI output as standard. Sony had this to say on the matter:

Since SCEI first announced product specifications of PS3 at the Electronic Entertainment Expo (E3) in May 2005, demand for enjoying full HD quality image and realistic digital sound through HDMI has grown tremendously. Given the sharp increase in availability of flat displays supporting HDMI in the market, SCEI has decided to equip HDMI as standard on all PS3 systems.


The 20GB PS3 will also enjoy a reduced sales price of 49,980 yen (tax included) in Japan. However, the US price will remain the same. A step in the right direction from Sony finally.
