Don't have the link, but there have been news in the past few days that MS had to cut the planned amount of 360s shipped worldwide. I think the total now is something like 1.3 million, with North America getting the largest amount of consoles, then Europe, then Japan. Already many stores have stopped taking pre-orders, and there's talk of people planning on turning around and re-selling their 360s for a ridiculously higher price to desparate tools willing to pay.

I'm not surprised by all this. I'm planning to get it myself after all the crap has settled down, probably sometime in Febrary next year.
