The release dates are late 2006 so does that mean the PS3 won't launch till Q4?

I think Imma order me one of those PS3s when theya re available for pre-order. Just don't go with Gamestop. As of last week they still had 30% of their XBox 360 order unfulfilled.

Wow, use Amazon or EBGames? I signed up to be notified by Amazon whenever an Xbox 360 came available and they never got back to me.

Yeah, I linked to this gizmodo post on it in the podcast notes a few weeks ago:

I think I might try Amazon. It might be fun to try one of those midnight madness thingys, but I actually want to get one, rather than wait in line for 8 hours and not.

Its REAL fun, that the Xbox had so manny preorders, and Didnt add ANYTHING ontop of it.
SO WHAT, 300,000 ordered the machine. they should have dumped 1,000,000, or AT LEAST 2 times as many on the market as was Preordered.

Then comes the idea that companies GOT the preorders and DIDNT disburse them, but SOLD them ofr MORE money. I would REALLy be talking to a LAWYER.
