why is there only going to be 40,000 ps3's made this year?

Question

That means 5 to a store where i live

Answer 1

Because its increases the value and the demand and at the same time makes the sales record for the corporation look good. And finally once the stores sell out they will reorder and maybe even over order.

Answer 2

Because there are only 44 days left in this year. that works out to 909 a day. Or 28 workign week days is 1428 per day. That sounds pretty good to me.

Answer 3

That's 400,000 - you missed a zero............
