The PS3 80gb version was temporarily in stock this morning, and jumped to #3 in Video Games on the Amazon chart. It then sold back out, and displayed a (Available on March 8, 2008) message.  Hope that explains it better. Now while amazon is not a good indicator of total sales, I believe it is a good measurement tool for demand.   #6+#12  vs #40+#70  with no current sales says something IMO.

Another site brought it to my attention.

They have them in stock.

I think what it shows is that you don't research your facts correctly. But that's just me.

zack - the prices i see are way over priced. i dont think people would pay that much for them.

That isnt amazon that has them in stock. Thats like ebay pricing, or other sites. Amazon is currently sold out.

Who me?

The cheapest one is 699 too. No one would pay that much for them. Ofcourse they wouldn't be sold yet.
