PS3 launch date in question

What Sony CEO Howard Stringer didn’t say at the recent Consumer Electronics Show about Sony’s PlayStation 3 video game console spoke volumes about the key product’s timetable, analysts say.

According to Marketwatch, Stringer provided no updates about the product’s US launch.

Industry watchers now expect the product’s US launch in the second half of 2006, although Sony may get a Japanese version out during the spring 2006 launch window that the technology giant first predicted last year.

Any delays could make it much harder for Sony next holiday season as it races to put out its own new product to take on Microsoft’s Xbox 360 in the market for video game players.
