It is by a long shot : )

go back and look look some charts for last year to get an Idea what will happen.

It is by the Biggest in the US and Europe, and it is the Biggest in Japan but the drop is not as big to the next week. I believe it is because I lower % of Japan celebrate Christmas, The sales there die down the second full we of January.

well...you're right! i didn't think about using this  site to get the info i needed (ok, now i feel quite dumb ).

We had a similar pattern in 2001 (ie last full week before christmas ending on the 22^nd)...and back then sales (in NA) were something like that:

week ending 15th 100%,

week ending 22nd 130%

week ending 29th 57%

week ending 5th January  18%

so i have to conclude that the week of Xmas will be even smaller than the last week...
