Rumors are flying that the shortage is just another marketing ploy. The media likes to talk about that "one hot toy that's in short supply" each holiday.

I worked in my buddy's game shop for the XBox/PS2 launches and it was the same thing. "First Shipment" was sold out and the second came in the following day.

Don't sweat it, there will be plenty of them and those who are overpaying for pre-paid spots on eBay will feel like idiots.
