Updated! 4/6/06
Sony has stepped in to settle the confusion by not saying anything! next generation reports on the announcement and "clarification" by sony europe.
Here is a quote from the article:
"At no point did he ever refer to a specific price for [the PS3]. He was referring to a 500 dollar price that the interviewer had questioned to him, explaining the relative value of the PS3 console in relation to Blu-ray disc players on the high-end and consoles on the low-end," Sharples said.
The article confirms that pricing will be announced at next months E3 expo in Los Angeles.

Reports are flooding the gaming blogs about a radio interview with the SCE Europe president by radio station Europe 1.
During the interview, George Fornay speculated on the ps3 price range to be available for "around 499-599 (euros)"
That's quite a chunk of change as that converts to about $612 to $734 for Sony's next generation console.
Gamasutra has more.
