| Squilliam said: I wonder why they upped their predictions. Did they find additional supply? Did they get some more feedback from the market or a combination of the two? It is hard as it stands to know precisely how much they will sell and linked to this precisely how much they have to sell. However since they have better data on the former and perfect on the latter I would trust that their projection ought to be within plus or minus 20% (does anyone know if plus is fixed yet?)

I wonder if the relative success of Move has made them rethink their estimates? If Sony are to be believed and have had to increase production to meet a higher than expected demand then I expect MS would be fairly happy. I don't see why they wouldn't expect a similar (and probabaly greater) success with Kinect, especially given their marketing push. I wouldn't put too much faith in pre-order numbers as an indication of sales as, like others have said, Kinect should do very well over the holidays.
