Well i hought SOny has confirmed a shipment of 500k units. And if they have sold 321k that looks to me not undershipped!

I may be wrong.

Let's talk about it in March after WW launch if I am wrong i will pay you dinner!

Well, as long as they ship more pretty soon, they'll be fine.  But if they expected that 500K to last them a few more weeks, then yea, they definitely undershipped.  I'm sure they ship some more though, seeing as they only had 175K on shelves after the first two days.

I know this post was made before the release of the second week numbers were released, but... I just got a laugh out of it. :)

Why's that?  They've sold ~400K in Japan in 2 weeks, which leaves just 100K on shelves and available online.  That will be sold out in less than 2 weeks.  So yea, if they thought it would last them awhile they undershipped.  Reports were saying the WiFi version sold through ~86% in the first week.  However, considering there's still WiFi only Vitas still on Amazon Japan, I'd say Sony already shipped more.
