LOL! You think if the retailers are purchasing HW you don't think they are purchasing SW too? ROFL Oh man you guys are good.

Retailers do buy SW, accessories, etc.  But when they have enough stock, they stop purchasing until consumers deplete the stock.  Yes, it is important that retailers purchase hardware, etc... that's how the items are then sold to consumers.

However, the end goal is to get X number of units into consumer's hands, not to see how many units can be placed in deep-discount bargain bins before going back to the distributor as punch-outs.
