Increasing Likelihood of 3m Wiis Sold in US in Dec

I'm very interested in seeing what Wii can do with a price effectively at $125 in a couple places (Walmart / Best Buy) in December. The $50 discount in late Sept 2009 led to a spike in the USA from something like 70,000 units per week to 150,000 - 185,000 week one and then stabilized at 127,000 units or so in October.

These $75 price cuts aren't everywhere, but they're larger than the drop from $250 to $200 ($75 vs. $50, 37.5% vs. 20%). Pretty much every major retailer except Game Stop has had a price cut for Wii this month - although not the week after BF. If you assume Wii sells for an average price of $165 or something in December, that'd be a a $35 price cut, 17.5% which would likely accompany a boost of 50% from Nov all by itself, in addition to the usual x2 rise. Still have to see what the Jan 1 week, the fifth week of the period holds, but "December" in the USA is really Black Friday to Christmas Eve, not Dec 1-Dec 31.

When you think about it blackfriday has nothing on a week before christmas when speaking of sales,  We could call it White Friday.
