They don't respond to rumors and mockups with takedown notices.

The only question is if Sony is intending on announcing at E3 or if they are holding off for a Fall announcement/Christmas release.

Microsoft doesn't need to do a re-design. They're already making money on the 360 so there's no point in an external re-design. Sony needs it because they're still losing money ($40) on every PS3 sold. They can't cut the price on the existing PS3 because that would make their loss even worse.

A re-design is the only hope for Sony right now, Microsoft has other options.

360 will not have a slim unit before the current, they are still having hardware issues with the current design.

If Microsoft is smart, they'll do it. Slim versions catch on quickly. If Microsoft unveils a slim version and Sony doesn't, I think the sales of the 360 will overtake the PS3 sales even further in the US. Those are all decent points, but I think the biggest point is that Microsoft is a smart competitor. Wow man, I never thought about that, but it's entirely possible.

I have to play Mass Effect 2 eventually anyways. I'd definitely consider buying another 360 if they came out with a slim model. I have to play Mass Effect 2 eventually anyways.

Microsoft doesn't need to do a re-design. They're already making money on the 360 so there's no point in an external re-design. Sony needs it because they're still losing money ($40) on every PS3 sold. They can't cut the price on the existing PS3 because that would make their loss even worse.

A re-design is the only hope for Sony right now, Microsoft has other options.
