Actually the reason is to help stem the losses they're having. They can increase the harddive by 20gb, which as most probably costs them $2 more. Then they sell it at $100 more than what they dropped the discontinued 60GB model for and make a more money. It's win win for Sony. They can say instead of dropping the price they're giving you more features for the money. You used to only get 60 GB for your $599, but now you get 20GB more, woohoo!
