I'm sure sony could have found 10 chinese kids to produce those 5 to 10 thousand extra units a week..This is really bad management.. Its not like they need 100.000 extra units a week..

It's not that easy to ramp up production in the quality you want. But that said - Sony should have expected increasing sales and produced some units in preparation.

Yes I know, but 5000 really shouldn't be a problem at the production levels for a device like the Vita.. there are no components specially build for it..  Foxconn can handle that if Sony would pay the money..

5,000 would have increased it to normal sales that you are thinking of. However, there would still be shortages. So it's more than 5,000. On top of that you just don't push a button and production speeds up until you are caught up like commercials show.
