Sony have also apparently doubled their orders for this year and, as I keep bringing up, have made it their target to have this be their fastest generational transition ever.

The source for that 500/600€ rumor is beyond stupid.
yes, but clearly that upward estimate was due to covid-19 clearly have a positive impact on the demand for video game products.   when sony made the lower forcast covid had not yet closed america if i remember correctly and thus sony's estimate was based on the rules for a "normal market".   but sony was crystal clear at the time,.. they expected demand to be lower due to higher price of the hardware.   thus i don't think it is unfair to expect a price higher than $400 for ps5.  costs will not have suddenly become significantly lower recently.  sony's adjustment was due to clear and measurable evidence of an increase in demand for video game products due to the covid lock downs and self isolation.
