PS3 Price Cut

As for a price drop, I wouldn't expect another until E3. Your best chance to get a good deal was probably back before Christmas. Now you'll probably be waiting a while.

The warranty is likely expired for all of the slim model PS3's. Depending on how handy you are you could always replace the stock fan with a quieter aftermarket one. I remember Llama having a whole bunch of them for pretty much every console a few years ago.
Kriegspire:
Personally, I'll wait another year or so and grab a PS3 with backwards compatibility, the very old ones.
Arseen:
The slim's fan noise is not bad.

There will almost certainly be a price cut this upcoming holiday season, though at the price it is currently at it is well more than worth it

Good luck finding a reliable one at that point. Like all of Sony's launch machines, they don't have a great life expectancy.
