He got it from the posted story
"Did he mention a price? Oh yeah! $199 US dollars for the "base" unit which you can bet simply means one controller, no headset, no frills but at least it will include the 60 Gig hard drive. "
I think they confused them selves though here is the quote from Kutaragi
"Kutaragi also had a few big announcements that pertained to the PSP, the most immediate being a price drop to $199 for the basic pack at the end of March in the U.S. This spring will also see a browser upgrade that will include Macromedia Flash 6.0 support. Kutaragi gave details on some later technology enhancements to look forward to this fall as well: RSS support, video and voice-over-IP, and a USB GPS receiver that will interface with new games (a version of Hot Shots Golf was mentioned for this). A PSP EyeToy camera will release in September and will feature a version of EyeToy Play and video chat. "
