"So it is not only Sony that will be profit challenged..."

Sony tried to leapfrog the industry on several fronts like they did with the PS2. They went a bit too far and ran into a whole slew of problems. Which delayed them. Microsoft took a much smaller step and was able to come closer to schedule. Nitendo took the most conservative step and had the least problems. Given the difficulty of creating content for the PS3 and its price, the obvious strategy for Microsoft is to cut its price. It would have been better if Halo3 was available for release, but a price cut right before Christmas could make a big difference. Wii should be pretty cheap, so Nitendo can probably drop the price enough to sell units. Sony, however, is screwed.
