The PS3 Slim’s stand is not free. It costs $US24, or about 8 per cent of the console’s $US300 price. Worth it? (Spoiler: No.) Here’s the detail shot.
But while Sony has done no favours for its fanbase, the company has just handed over a potentially huge pile of cash to third party peripheral manufacturers, like Mad Catz and Nyko, who will make a killing selling the things in hot pink polka dot finish for a still-ludicrous $US15 a pop. [Kotaku]

Mad Catz does good prices? Ive bought 3 of their 3 meter hdmi cables for $30 each, sure beats paying $100 for any other brand in store. just be glad that sony supports 3rd party peripheral providers. and you know what I would do if I was unimpressed with the price of the stand? lay it flat! 1st party peripherals peripherals are always over priced (…xbox harddrive…)
