Sony: PS3 sales increased dramatically, won't reflect in NPD

Sony's CEO Howard Stringer is giving a little tease about Sony's current PS3 sales numbers before
NPD lays down the law later today with the October data. Stringer says that in the two weeks prior to Nov. 11, they sold 100,000 units per week. However, the NPD group will only
reflect data for the month of October, which saw the PS3 selling between 30K and 40K per week, according to Stringer. Sales only expectedly jumped after the
introduction of the 40GB model on Nov. 2.
Stringer admits to all the difficulties the PS3 has found in the last year, telling the Associate Press, "Obviously, we've taken so much heat over the year on
PS3 ... Finally, the turning point has been passed." Although it's probably still too early to say that, at least Sony seems to be on the right path -- good thing
everyone's sales go up during the holidays.
