well an analyst seems to think that Microsoft will be shipping around 300,000 more units to North America within the next week or so..... and hopefully that means that those of us waiting to get a 360 from trainn might be able to get one if trainn's supplier gives them some (and if the numbers are close to the launch number as mentioned then hopefully that's good for us).

here's a highlight from the article
[ba8a1256dec]McNealy said he believed Microsoft had 300,000 to 400,000 units in North America for the launch, around 300,000 for the European launch and 100,000 for the Japan launch. He expects Microsoft to ship another 300,000 units in the next week in North America, which would put the total at about 1 million units. Additional shipments would be required at month end to reach McNealy's 1.5 million to 1.8 million target.[/ba8a1256dec]

here's the link to the rest of the article if anyone is interested....

Or you can tell Paris Hilton that her XBOX doesn't have a penis. She might give it to someone. O

Hopefully, we are able to catch up quickly with these if that is the case.

We did receive another shipment (3 units, all have been shipped), but as you may assume, it barely puts a dent in the waiting list for the system.

I understand that you all are probably just as frustrated by the shortage as we are, but really even more so....but I guess frustrated isn't the right word (to describe my feelings)....I'm not angry about it, just anxious to get my new toy....so are you all just about done with the 2nd shipment?? (I am supposed to be in it and hopefully will be in the next shipment you all send out!!)

Thanks for the update and of course for the free 360!!

yeah so i've been hearing.....I'm going to wait on Trainn to ship me one since really I don't want to wait for hours in a line and not be guaranteed one.....I'm hopeful that Trainn will get some more soon and then I'll be playing my new free Xbox 360 (and also I want the system to come in the mail because I've been having problems with a few doubters who don't believe I'll get it and I want to prove it by letting them see it came in the mail and I didn't just buy it at the store....)....

That applied only to the first shipment which officially "sold out" on September 26th (in comparison the site launched in mid May) and we filled each and every one of the "guaranteed launch day" orders.

yeah I knew I wouldn't be getting the 100 dollars (which is fine as I really hadn't heard about 3604free until later in the summer which is my fault).....I just wish that MS would hurry and get you all (trainn) some more 360s to send out because man it'd be nice to be able to play Xbox 360 over the Christmas break (and of course it's out of the question of getting one before Christmas, but the break is until early January so I'm still hopeful)........
