I would just like to say that the PS3 was supply constrained during last Christmas. I never saw one in stores for several months after release. I think th e360 will sell more then the PS2 this year, but beyond that i'm not sure of the sales.

Where do you live?  If you go back and read posts around that time, PS3s were readily available shortly after launch on pretty much a national basis.  There a lot of threads about Ebay people either losing money or returning them to stores before their 30 days were up.  I don't recall exactly, but I don't believe it took more than about 2 weeks for people to realize that they could get one pretty easily if you looked just a little (In most areas of the country).  Certainly I stand to be corrected but there was a sudden "oh no" from all the people that planned to ebay them and a LOT of them were returned to stores and they were suddenly available.  I saw them in my local stores from the first week after launch... Could just be my area, though...
