While there is little information on the new SKU, the FCC ID is listed as AK8CBEH19C1 and rumors suggest the new PlayStation 3 model may feature a top-loading disc tray similar to the one on the PS2 Slim.
El33tOnline.com also points out that PS3 Firmware 4.20 slightly changed the wording on the XMB from ‘Eject Disc’ to ‘Remove Disc’ when you press Triangle to bring up a disc-based game’s option menu.. stating, "Sony released a PS2 Super Slim in 2008 that featured an internal power supply and was lighter than the original Slim model."
There quote, roughly translated:
"You think AK8CBEH19C1 is FCC ID, so CECH-4001x model number in North America, and appeared in the model number called CECH-4000B or CECH-4000A in the country.
From a position to paste the nameplate has been published, the shape of the body as a CECH-3000 of the current model is so different.
I hate cheesy so becomes at once when the design was a top-loading or in the cost down.
Below are pictures from the PDF files of the CECH-4001x label location, CECH-3000 model label the current location and CECHA00 first model label location.
Note the image is for the confirmation of the position and label body shape, size comparison can not be so disparate body size for each model."
The new release could be announced at Gamescom, according to reports
Sony is working on a new model for the PS3, a filing to the US Federal Communications Commission suggests.As unearthed by NeoGAF, a potential new 4000 series – the CECH-4001x – could be yet another smaller and slimmer model of the current-gen console, following on from the previous PS3 Slim released in 2009.
Whilst Sony is widely believed to be working on a next-generation console the PS4, a cheaper PS3 could be seen as a way of tempting late adopters to purchase the system and increasing its lifespan.
It is reported that Sony could unveil the new super slim model at German games industry consumer event Gamescom next month.
however, as usual Sony has declined to comment.
