And the HD-DVD player won't be in short supply and therefore won't have an inflated price due to lack of supply. I would guess that this Christmas, we're going to see PS3s selling for $800-$1000 on places like eBay due to short supply. But, to be fair we all have an advantage here. If you truly wanted a PS3 for whatever reason (most people are buying it for videogames afterall), there is no reason to track one down. Pre-Order ahead of time at a respectable place who will fullfill it. Anyone at this site or such others who complains in 6 months that they didn't get one (you know it will happen). Well... It was no one's fault but their own. Especially after what happened last year. People should know better. But, your point works for the mass public who doesn't visit sites like these or knows nothing about it. |

The PS3 will probably be even tougher to get on it's release day. You won't be able to easily find them on store shelves until March at the earliest. |

I am pre-ordering two from different spots just to better my odd's. If I happen to get two, I will just sell one to a family member as several want one anyways. That's another problem you will face. People buying 10 and 20. |
The format wars are over before they began IMO, since all PS3 games will be made in BR discs, movies for that format will also be made. Seems pretty simple to me? |
