Seems there will be more PS3s in a very few days. As a matter of fact, some BestBuys in my area received a few PS3s Friday afternoon. They also expect to have some for Black Friday! A couple of stories supporting this info:

Now, I don't know if this will pan out but if it is true, I hope those trying to sell their PS3 purchases on E-Bay hurry up and get their money. Because if Sony does deliver anywhere close to 600,000 units by Christmas those E-Bay prices are going to plummet till right before Christmas.
Is it possible that Sony planned this all along? Only 400,000 units on launch day. Shorting some stores especially on presells. Watching as the prices for the PS3 hit $3000 to $4000 on E-Bay before delivering several hunderd thousand units on the market before Christmas! What a great idea for insuring that no media outlet can report that there are any PS3s setting on a shelf somewhere! That their product is lapped up either by those who want one to play (I want one for BluRay ablities) or someone who is trying to make as much return on investment on E-Bay for their investment. I hope you guys selling have your taxes paid up!
