The PS3 supports 1920x1080 and considering that 4K displays seem to gain ground it sounds unlikely that Sony would limit its new console which might be the flagship for the next 5 years to a resolution that was common in laptops 5 years ago.
Or am I getting something wrong here? What does "x 2" mean in this context? Two displays? Two images on one screen (e.g. some 3D technique)?
But the most important question is:
Will it run Linux?
Edit:
Doh! It's only the camera, not the console.

According to some insightful commenters the console is powerful enough to push:
-1080p at full-speed (60 frames per second) with slightly noticeable better graphical elements
-1080p at 30fps in 3D with slightly noticeable better graphics
-4K at 30fps with slightly noticeable better graphics
-May or may not be capable of doing 4K in 3D. Perhaps by limiting the frame-rate to 24fps and/or reducing the graphical intensity back to the PS3's respected level.
...What I feel about all of this??
SONY needs a new direction, and one straight out of Apple's playbook:
1) They charge $10,000 per yearly per developer. Apple charges $99. They should opt to a middle ground like a $399 yearly developer cost.
2) App/Game selection is tremendously strict in PS. Its a little bit more lenient on XBL. And a whole lot more lenient on iOS. And much much more lenient in Windows Store. SONY should aim at Apple's level so that Apps/Games really have to be "high quality" but allows variety and more explosive development.
3) Get rid of the "10 year strategy". Technology moves fast, keep up. A three year plan seems much more respectable. Hell, Apple updates its products annually and they get sold like pancakes. I would say do something every year like offer a new case shape, colour, LED design, exclusive title etc. Something fancy, not to fragment but only to spruce up the market you carve.
4) The launch is very important. A perfect launch like the initial iPad can "make" your product, and a failed launch like the Wii-U can "break" your product.
How to "make":
- Have the SDK in developers hands very early on
- Keep some secrets (you have with the console design, but you should've hidden the UX as well)
- Have plenty of units in storage ready
- Have the units manufactured rapidly
- Peek at your direct and indirect competition
- Start a massive marketing and advertising campaign
- Release 1.5 months before Xmas
- Price it right
- Make people "need" your device for Xmas
- Keep people happy by a good selection of games (even better if they are exclusives)
- Iron out all flaws (hardware, processor, software) before Mid-Dec
- Don't stop innovating
-1080p at full-speed (60 frames per second) with slightly noticeable better graphical elements
-1080p at 30fps in 3D with slightly noticeable better graphics
-4K at 30fps with slightly noticeable better graphics

But considering the specs of the console, the hardware cost, that's the price i guess will be the launch price, hope i wrong and will be 400 or least.

And by the way some of those articles are biased and wrong.
Firstly, console gaming (PS3) hasn't been dragging the PC gaming market down. Its actually the other way around, and only thanks to the Xbox 360, the console gaming has been pushing PC gaming forward from a non-exsistant niche.
Secondly, each part estimated to be $460 - 600 have included tax and profit margins. The PS4 will be built with limited profit margins (to components manufacturers) and the whole unit would be taxed as awhole. This cuts a lot of unnecessary fees. Its basic business.
I estimate the entire package would cost SONY something closer to $340, then the new BRD would add roughly $50, so a grand total of about $390 + tax = $450 - 500.
My estimate for PS4 price = $499.
PS4 will be sold AT COST. Why?
Marketing and miscellaneious costs and because that's what SONY's always done. Its what Nintendo does. It needs to be competitive against the Xbox Infinite.
But isnt that bad business?
No. Within a year I believe most of the marketing and misc fees will be negligiable* and components become cheaper and better wholesale deals made. It would probably cost SONY closer to $400 so they would be making a little profit.
Again, bad for business?
No. They will make most of their money from games, accesories and royalties.
In its second year, I believe they will make killer profits.
