PS3 preorder discussion

[takezo]

PS3 may not be reserved, by brick and mortar stores due to the fiasco that happend with Xbox 360. 400,000 units are expected to cover North America, which encludes USA and Canada. If Canada receives 100,000 units (they may get less). 300,000 units must be divided into 50 states. That means 6,000 units each state if divided evenly. Obvioulsy this will not happen, as larger states will recieve more than smaller states.

Rather than dealling with the hassle of very PO-ed customers, they can just sell first come first serve. The PS3 will sell regardless.

Wii on the other hand will have 4,000,000 units for USA and Canada on 11/19/06. People who want the Wii should have no trouble finding one.
