Not in my area, Wal-mart has been out of 360 for weeks (even the Arcade, which I noticed always sold well at Wal-mart). Even our small Best Buy were out of the Pro & Elite for a long time. My corner store FM (Fred Meyer) were out of Pro and Elite since Christmas. They would get 1 or 2 Pro in and they would be sold.
What I do notice though is PS3 which hardly sold at our local FM store is now selling. 80gb is gone now (it has been there since before Christmas) and even all the Spider-man3 are all sold. They have the new 40gb without Spider-man bundle and doing a big promotion on Blu-ray.
I even notice the game for PS3 are moving as well (still not as good as 360) but they are selling.
If this is a calculate move on MS part then I hope for their sake that they have something up their sleeves but if not they just give PS3 the opportunity it need to break out of the 3rd place in the US.
Couple of thing I find interesting, the gamestop I went to the manager told me several weeks ago there won't be new sku for PS3 but a different bundle for 80gb to replace Motorstorm bundle. So I guess that's the new MGS4 bundle rumor. (No 120gb then?). Another interesting thing is my FM store have clear out all the 20gb harddrive. I am not sure if they decided to just not stock this particular one and only want to keep 120gb or something is up and may be MS is combining Elite and Pro to a new sku?
I think they really need to do away with the Elite and just make one sku. There are really not much incentive to get Elite aside from the 120gb HD. (I have mine since May of last year and it still have or 90gb left...)
