Id post this over in the gaming forum, but I'd like to know if you guys (In the NYC/Long Island area) have seen any massive lines @ a Best Buy or anything for the PS3 around your neighborhood? Since my brother works @ a Best Buy, I should be able to get one in December. Especially since they slashed the unit count down to 150,000. |

WELL...There is suppose to have 1,000,000 units shipped to the North America market before the end of the year..So maybe more than what you say? If not, I'll just wait until next year. |

I believe the actualy unit count was only 400,000... the one million was the original number. |

Sony promises 400,000 PS3 machines for the U.S. market on the day of the launch and a U.S. total of about 1 million units by year's end -- down sharply from its original projections of 4 million. Nintendo expects to have 4 million Wiis ready worldwide when the console hits store shelves, with the bulk going to North America. |

But I noticed Ludacris was their main guy "musically" as he also did a show for the PS3 Preview Event few weeks back. |
