I agree with Crazyglues points. I preoredered an Xbox 360 from EBgames and now am still waiting. It's December 16th and I'm now #13th in line, so I probably won't get one before Christmas. It was bad enough that this console was $400, but I was going to give it as a gift so that sort of made it worthwhile as a killer Christmas gift. Now I'm just going to get a refund of my deposit and wait for the PS3 or wait until the 360 comes down in price when the PS3 is launched. It has left me with bitter taste in my mouth.
More 360 launch numbers
