129 is new. I'm sure they're much cheaper used.

They haven't dropped any more in price, because they're still Sony's cash cow - they actually make a profit off the 129 price, thanks to improvements in manufacturing techniniques. Though the main revenue is still licensing games. They still sell almost as many PS2s as PS3s right now in Japan. And they expect to still considerable amounts of them for another couple years, as there's still plenty of games being developed for them. You could say the PS2 will still be financing the PS3 for a while.
