We were actually discussing this briefly in the NPD thread so I'm glad Dirty made a new thread for it.
I still can't figure it out, but I guess if Sony is pushing about 1million consoles a month give or take 100,000, maybe that is all they can produce right now. And if they switched over to the slim model and depleted that inventory to quickly the could be riding rail thin from the manufacturer to stores.
Whatever it ends up being I don't think it's a good thing for Sony to be short on supply during what may be the most important year for sony in the console market.
