Sony: PS3 shortages have hit the UK

http://www.videogamer.com/news/sony_ps3_shortages_have_hit_the_uk.html

My local Media Markt megastore is out of PS3s (Groningen, Netherlands) and there are reports of shortages from other European countries as well.

yeah that seems to be only for the 120gb model tho

At the MM megastore I was talking about all PS3s are sold out.

Media Markt here did receive a small supply of 250 GB Heavy Rain bundles, but it's close to being sold out again. One guy asked a clerk for other cheaper models, but was told they ordered other models but this bundle was the only config they've received at this point.
