According to the reports, Sony undershipped the Wi-fi version (ie; the cheaper version), and overshipped the 3g version.
Apparently, lots of demand for the cheaper one, less demand for the expensive one.

Can the 3G version use Wi-fi?

If not, I can't understand why they'd think the 3G Version would sell much at all....

Most people are still much more Wi-Fi people.

IIRC they did the same thing with the 20/60 GB ps3 in Japan. Sold out of the 20GBs because they undershipped. Ofc they were losing so much more money on the 20GB so it made sense...I'm thinking it's a similar situation with the Vita. One breaks even, the other profits; One loses money, one breaks even, etc

Seems like a big difference though.  The difference between the 20 gig and the 60 is shelling out 50 bucks for a wireless router.

Difference between Wi-Fi and 3G is paying an expensive subscription fee...

I guess you could argue that's part of Sony's plan though.  Force people on to the more expensive 3G Version where they can then collect a part of AT&T's 3G revenue from it.
