Report: New PS3 Model In The Works

Sony has made a habit of redesigning its consoles as they age to not only put out a sexy new form factor for its consoles, but also to take advantage of decreased manufacturing costs and efficiencies. It looks like the PS3 may get another new version before all is said and done.

Japanese site Pocket News reports that Sony has filed paperwork with the FCC for a new model PS3 with the model code CECH-4001X, as opposed to the current 3000 series.

The pictures filed with the FCC appear to concern themselves with the new placement of the FCC info label, so it's not known what kind of capabilities the new system may have, if any.
