Many of you have completely forgotten that Sony only plans to ship 10 million for the fiscal year. That means 23 million by march 31, 2009. They aren't going to ship 17 million for the remaining 9 months of 2009.

FY 2008 - 10 million (that's across 12 months)
17 million across the first 9 months of FY 2009?

That's just not going to happen.

Plans can change...

 

Plans don't change that dramatically.  They could beat their projection by a million, maybe 2 at most if costs come down faster than they project but they won't change to the point that an extra 8 million will be pumped out.   That's just illogical.

 

Their entire goal for the FY is profitability, not market share.  Even if costs come down some (still in the red) selling twice as much would negate the savings they just established.
