no offence but this news is from 2 days ago. and also the telegraphe is quite a reliable source

ok then not a lie, but a misunderstanding. The official figure from Sony was 3.8 Million Sold and 5.5 million shipped. Those extra 1.7 million have not been sold to anyone.

It doesn't help the credibility of a source when they don't understand the difference between shipped and sold.

EDIT: Oh and for the millionth time, NPD numbers account for ALL USA AND CANADA, includng online sales, mom and pop stores, Wallmart, and every single sale that goes through any retail outlet of any sort to customers. In other words, every sale of the PS3 in USA and Canada is accounted for by NPD. So stop the "NPD doesn't count X" bullshit because it does. PS3 has sold nowhere near 5.5 million and the telegraph has taken shipped figures (that is, shipped to warehouses, not even to retailers) and reported as sold. Sloppy reporting all up and not what I would expect from a "reliable" source.
