40gb august playstation replaced
According to an internal Wal-Mart document (that gaming blog Joystiq scored from a reliable source), the current 40GB PS3 will be replaced "with a new model in early August." Of course, "new model" could mean a lot of things, including a slightly altered 40GB SKU including an extra game, different controller or, who knows, even an Xbox 360! Hopefully we'll hear more about this alleged Sony/Microsoft partnership at E3 next week. [joystiq]

Singapore may be another one of the countries set to receive the iPhone 3G on August 22, according to a new report. Late in July Apple said that the iPhone 3G would be released in 20 more countries on August 22 and up to this point 17 countries have been confirmed. A SingTel spokesman has reiterated a statement, first made in June, that SingTel will bring the iPhone 3G to Singapore by the end of the year and the report claims that it has been "seriously looking at launching the iPhone at the end of August or early September." If true it would seem logical for SingTel to launch on August 22 along side other releases.

Want to get in on the closed beta for Sony's once-upon-a-time hotly anticipated PlayStation Home? To throw your name into the hat, just download the PlayStation Home theme that'll be added to the store later today. That's it. Your level of activity is apparently one of the criteria they'll be looking at—it's implied the more hardcore you are, the better your chances, though they might wanna see how nubbie nubs like it too.

Sony on mid-Wednesday revealed a new 160GB version of the PlayStation 3. The new version holds twice as much as the 80GB PS3 that now serves as the low-end model, and was built partly to hold extra content from the just-opened PlayStation video store. The console still has the same expansion as the newer 80GB model, however, and is limited to two USB ports as well as backwards compatibility only for original PlayStation games. Wi-Fi and a DualShock 3 gamepad carry over from the other revised model.

The PS3 40GB model is getting pushed aside in September by a bigger, badder PS3—the 80GB is back in full swing. Dubbed Core Pack, it has "the same functionality" as the 40GB model, but you get double the storage for the same $399 price. Looks they'll stay ahead of the Xbox 360 storage-wise for the standard model. Update: Press release below, though it doesn't add a whole lot more info.
