more news today...and more bad news for Sony it seems.
Only 500k PS3 consoles will be available for launch. 400k for North America and 100k for Japan.
One analyst downgrades shipments of PS3 by end of 2006 to 1.5 mil. Sony had siad they were going to ship 4 mil by end of 2006. Looks like the shortage could be far worse than the 360 shortage was.
Also interesting is that it still seems to be the same manufacturing problem that killed the March '06 launch. Not liking the potential quality issues the PS3 may have.
