USA PS3 Pre-orders 'Already Ordered'
GameStop Corp. in the USA, one of the two countries which Sony is to launch PlayStation 3 this year has said that its 3,600 GameStop and EB Games stores have sold out their quota of pre-orders for Sony's new PlayStation 3 video game console.
Each store had no less than eight and no more than 13 of the next-gen players available on pre-order.
Sony will officially start selling the PS3 on November 17 in the United States and Japan and March 2007 in Europe.
According to Reuters Sony has allotted 400,000 PS3 units for its US launch, compared with its PlayStation 2 launch supply of just under 500,000.
HD Comment: - So Sony will no doubt feel the heat of customer fustration when they can't get their console as Microsoft did with their Xbox 360 launch. However the PS3 may be the product that finally finds the convergence that TV & computer companies have been looking for. In the wake of Google's $1.7 Billion purchase of what seems nothing more than 'You've Been Framed' X 1000 with their acquisition of YouTube, the PS3 with its in-built browser might find some extra friends.
