Yes, 42K is a decent number, but I doubt it can be sustained for future months. December sales could be 20K, and then it will fall off rapidly.

Where is that 35K number coming from? What happened to 70K?

P.S. Now we know why the negative BD stuff came flying out. HD DVD isn't living up to projections. A few weeks to go, and 250K players and 150K add-ons need to sell to meet projections.
