What shortage? :/ Well I guess the shortage I never knew about is officially over... Btw why would a company like Sony screw up logistics this bad? I thought they were a hardware company and all that. |
In the US it was in short supply do to the trasition from PS3s with a 65nm chipset and ones with a 45nm chipset. Takes time to change your production flows fully. Especially considering they chose to do it right after the holidays when stock was naturally low as it was.

But surely they would take that into account and only withdraw 65nm production once 45nm production had started to ramp up?
|
Not if they are built on the same line, plus you have to consider retooling the factories. Its just as simply as you think.

The PS3 motherboard is identical, all they changed were a few chips. Its not like they stopped producing TVs and started producing Blu Ray players on the same production line.
