That's my guess!

If anything, the 80G model is probably cheaper to manufacture as it omits the Emotion Engine chip, and blue laser costs are fallen a lot. Want full PS/2 backwards compatibility in hardware? Then it might be a good time to get a 60G model while they last. The good news is, the supply should last awhile: That's what Kaz Hirai says (see link), and I believe him, because the PS/3 that I purchased yesterday was manufactured in January.

From the article:
"Wedbush Morgan analyst Michael Pachter said in a research note that Sony had an estimated 2 million to 3 million 60-gigabyte models in inventory and that once they were sold out, it would lower the price on the 80-gigabyte version."
