What is Sony's Big Announcement?

Hmm... Everyone seems to be excited about Sony's announcement tomorrow. There are a lot of speculation on the web on what Sony will be announcing. Some says it has to do with the Playstation brand, but from there all bets are off. The most ambitious claims are for a $100 price reduction on the Playstation 3, a reduction on the Playstation 2 price to $99 (a reduction many feel is long overdue), and full PS2 backwards compatibility for the PS3, via software (the Playstation 3 originally shipped with full PS2 backwards compatibility in hardware, then reduced that to partial backwards compatibility via a software/hardware mix, and finally dropped it altogether).

Other possibilities are announcement of the Playstation Portable 2, or a price drop for the current PSP.

All of this is very much speculation and rumor. Let's just wait and see what Sony announcement would be tomorrow.
