No they won't have any supply issues. Don't forget that sony projected 13m sales for 2009, so they were expecting these kind of sales.

Who knows... if they met black friday demand then why should they?

another question.... did the mega BF deals front load the US holiday sales?

no more then the half price 360 arcade deal that walmart had.

pent up demand... different.

Why would one be frontloaded and the other "pent up demand"?

edit: misread it I think.

LOL Avinash... is that you?

Well... If MS can have supply issues with less sales then this... I dont see why Sony would be able to meet demand.

It is possible, especially if the PS3 sells better than Sony expected. But I thought they said they upped manufacturing output for the last part of the year to help with demand.
