Various British retailers have told CVG that 80GB PS3 SKUs might be on the way to the UK by the end of Summer. CVG reports that employees from both wholesaler Costco and music store HMV are hearing that the 80GB models are likely to hit the UK in a few months.
Sony's official take on the rumor is one we're not surprised to hear, "There's no official word on an 80GB PS3 coming to the UK." At least it's better than the usual "Sony does not comment on rumors and speculation." Almost the same thing really though; however, from the former's wording, it sounds most likely that something is in the works.
Support for an 80 gig model in Europe seems to be a logical step. After all, with increasing mandatory installs and new features such as PlayTV coming soon, there will be a higher demand for more HDD space.

Well I don't know much about GAME, they probably don't mess around with rumors too much...do they?
not really, but I wonder where HMV are getting their info from if we're not getting it.
