The Ceramic White PS3 unit is currently only available in Japan, having been released in the region on November 11, 2007, although filings submitted with the Federal Communications Commission indicate that is soon to change.
Sony Computer Entertainment America told Next-Gen via email that it was happy with the existing PS3 models on the market.
"As you may know, there are many FCC filings like this each year. We haven't made any announcements about upcoming PS3 plans, but are comfortable with our current two sku strategy."
However, the statement went on to add, "We are continually evaluating the market trends and consumer input to determine the appropriate PS3 models for our territory."
