Sony Computer Entertainment Europe Announces New March 2007 date for European Launch of PLAYSTATION 3


London, Wednesday 6 September 2006 – Sony Computer Entertainment Europe (SCEE) today announced that it would revise the launch date of its PLAYSTATION® 3 computer entertainment system in the PAL territories of Europe, Russia, Middle East, Africa and Australasia from 17th November 2006, as previously announced to March 2007.

Launch dates for Japan and North America will remain the same, which are November 11th and November 17th respectively.

The revision of the launch date in the SCEE territories is caused by the delay in the mass production schedule of the blue laser diode within the Sony Group, thus affecting the timely procurement of key components to be utilised in PLAYSTATION 3.

The previously announced PLAYSTATION 3 shipment forecast of 6 million units globally within the fiscal year ending 2007 is not changed.

I assure you, within a few years you won't have time for playing games on any hardware... (Unless you end up unemployed which, in general, is not a good idea at all! )

Unless you win the lottery, which I plan on doing

Good luck, you'll definately need it, mate
My dad tries constantly for more than 20 years, all in all he won 5.000€ and spent about 20.000€ LOL + hours of guessing numbers etc.

Was it worth the money ? Nope. No. Not at all. God.
