This is (probably) an awful deal for consumers. If you really have to buy it from the Sony Rewards store, I'm guessing the price is inflated over buying it online at Amazon or even at a Best Buy. That means your PS3 isn't really free - it's built into the inflated cost. Not to mention getting a new credit card for this deal is lame... You're better off signing up with cards when they give you $250 cash for doing so.
If the Sony Rewards store has great prices, then my mistake -- but I just don't think that'll be the case.

Hopefully it won't be more of the same thing that amazon was doing with THEIR card...

even people with good credit were getting credit limits on the card below the cost of the television...
will be interesting to hear from someone who takes advantage of this
