Sony making new PS3 model
by Steve Watts, Jul 05, 2012 11:30am PDTSony is releasing a fourth version of its PlayStation 3 console. But will it be any slimmer than the currently available Slim model? The most recent revision, CECH-3000, was lighter weight and drew less power--but didn't offer a different chassis. According to the latest FTC documentation, a forthcoming model of the PS3 might offer a new design.
A NeoGAF thread (via CVG) found the FCC filing, noting that it had a new model number of CECH-4000. The internal specs of the system seem unchanged, but users noted the label has changed position which could indicate a new form factor for the system.
Shacknews has contacted Sony regarding the filing, and will update as more information becomes available.

Plus, it doesn't look like something that can't be done on current hardware (with less visual fidelity).
