Microsoft is still claiming shortages?
I live in a town of 8000 people and the local store has 5 elites, a whole bunch of pros and arcades on the shop floor and has had for ages.
I don't know of anyone out of stock of 360s, or PS3s for that matter.
There may not be a shortage where you live, But i havnt seen an eliete in stores around here since well before x-mas. Last week my friend had to goto 5 diff stores just to find a pro. All places had arcade models, but who wants a 360 with no hd ore wireless controler?.
PS3s on the other hand are everwhere. Talking to the sales ppl all models of 360s with a hd are selling out within a day of being on the shelf.
