Of course there is going to be an upfront demand.

Good, demand is lovely.

As a side note, my local gamecrazy only received 2 slims, and nobody pre-ordered them. I just got one of those two

Sounds good, although Sony better stay on top of the shipments. This is still good news though, the PS3 will finally be able to compete again.

No worries there. Remember SCE has already gone on record as stating "We have trucks!"

Forget trucks, they'll need another factory at this rate...

I know I'm a bit of a Sony fanboy but I can honestly say a lot of my friends are now getting a PS3. They've been waiting on this price cut for a long time. I don't have a hugh circle of friends but 9 of them are definitly getting a PS3 before christmas.

I think everyone including Sony underestimated the impact a price cut would have. Top that up with the hugh ad campaigns there about to do and PS3 is gonna be as hot as PS2 was.

Considering the official launch isnt til the 1st, it's not surprising that those who put it out early have sold out.

was trying to order one for a friend from newegg...already sold out.

Either retailers underestimated demand, or Sony didn't have enough to ship.

The problem with these news is that we never know which one is the case.

Really? Even when Sony stated they had enough?

Sigh..
