What is this load of bullshit you mention that there will be a PS4?
It was officially confirmed that there wouldn't be one and that-

Bravo...I'll admit honestly you almost had me going for the "post reply" button in a less than stellar way
I believe the sources are reffering to the PS3 upgrade. The sources are also claiming that Mircosoft is in a hurry to rush out the Xbox Loop for the holiday which in itself is a pretty bogus claim.
The only thing next gen wise Sony has filed is something called "NEAR". So if there's a PS4, 1. it certainly as HELL ain't called PS4 and 2. It's pretty early in development.
