Not sure if it's going to be a factor or was just specific to my Best Buy but I noticed something that bugged me yesterday when I purchased my SLIM PS3 ( YLOD on old PS3 /cry).
They had huge piles of Wii and 360 but the PS3 Pyramid they had back when the SLIM was released was gone and they only had 6-7 PS3 on display.
Hopefully they were just waiting for a shipment because I would hate to see them run out of PS3 ( when you think of it Sony started production of the SLIM last summer and it has been selling pretty well since its release).
