Meanwhile they're telling their shareholders "Tee hee hee, we're just kidding about that, really. Don't get your hopes up!"
If the world worked like you think it does (telling people a product is sold out will automatically make then buy it and you can sell anything with a large enough ad budget) then no company would ever go under and every product would be a massive hit. I mean, Sony told people they would want the PS3 so badly that they would be happy to get a second job to afford one! Jack Tretton also said that if you could even find one in stores after launch they'd pay you $1200 bucks for it!
That's why the PS3 shot out of the gate like a rocket and never looked back.
