Preorders for ps3

[Gamekid]

I was thinking about how preorders for the ps3 would work and I may be a little off, but to avoid a console shortage, think about this. Sony has promised us 2 million units on launch day. We need 2 million preorders prior to launch day. The question is how many consoles does each territory get so that the number 2 million is divided as evenly as possible? Secondly, Sony has promised us 1 million consoles after November for 4 months going into next year. I think that what Sony might do is have retailers take a certain amount of preorders on a first come first serve basics. For those that don't want a ps3 on launch day, they may want one in december or january. I think that it would be best if retailers took in a certain amount of preorders every month and then gave the customer a note saying what month they would get a ps3. What happened with Microsoft is that they took in more preorders then they had consoles. Sony doesn't want to do this. Sony will need to pull an ace out to make sure this goes as smoothly as possible.
