The PlayStation was released in 1995, then Sony redesigned it as a one-third smaller PSone in 2000. PlayStation 2 was released in 2000, and then Sony revised it as a slimline PStwo in 2005 at half the size of the original.
Logic would dictate that the PlayStation 3, which was first released in 2006, will get a smaller version by 2011. But since it’s Sony’s biggest games console so far, they are already working on the next generation of the PS3 reports T3.
Sony has said they expect to cut the size of its console’s insides (smaller chips, heatsinks, etc.), which leads the way for a redesign on the outside (we dubbed PSthree). Sony Japan says they’ll transition from 90-nm to 45-nm chips by 2008, or early 2009.

Sony is quietly preparing to launch a slimmer, trimmer PS3, says tech site T3 (not to be confused with the terrible Terminator movie starring Claire Danes).

T3 says they got the tip from "a particularly well-informed insider" during CES last month. They also theorize that this trimmer PS3, which they guess will debut this Fall, will be host to a massive 160 GB hard drive. Rumors of a 120 GB PS3 are so earlier this week!
That's pretty much all they have to say, though they do throw in an artist's rendering of what a PS3 slim might look like. A slim PS3 is almost certainly coming, but this Fall? That seems a bit quick to me.

I think Sony going to do something like that. Cuz Sony always make a newer PS after 3 or 5 years so they can make money. Same thing with PSP they keep changing it so they can get more money. We may see a smaller PS3 in a year or 2 i bet.
