That's total BS ... every store I've been in for the past week is loaded up with PS3's.
Actually, I still have yet to see one piling up on any shelves. I've been to 2 Best Buys, 2 Circuit Cities, 1 Target, 2 EB Games, 1 Game Crazy the past week. None of them had any visible when I was there and one of the Best Buys had already sold out last weeks shipment, so did Ciruit City(one of those Circuit City was the scene of the famous tear gas crowd control incident during the PS3 launch). BTW, it was the Best Buy employees who were telling me that that no one knew that shipments of PS3s were comming in, but apparently they sold out pretty fast when people did find out. As of right now, I still can't just go to a store and pick one up, at least in this area. Maybe this week......
