Sony’s 250 GB PS3 isn’t expected to launch until November 3rd, and the units have already been stocked at retails outfits, the above one belonging to Best Buy in Houston. The console goes on sale November 3 (Tuesday) and will retail for $399.

Sony has finally confirmed the tons of rumors recently circulating that all indicated a 250 GB PlayStation 3 slim — however, the confirmation so far is only for the Australian market. A new PS3 slim bundle will include a 250 GB hard dive, with one of the following titles bundled with it: Uncharted 2, Ratchet & Clank: A Crack in Time, Singstar Motown or EyePet. The new bundle will launch on October 15 and will retail for $600 AUD, or $520 USD.

Sony will most likely introduce similar offers (with a 250 GB) hard drive in the US and Europe, most likely at a $399 price point.
