NO. It has not sold 5,685% more. Thats the percent it moved up from its old position.

It started at 12,265 and moved to 212. That is 5,685%

That and 5,685% of 0 (since it just came out, thereby 0 were sold before it came out... duh) is still 0.

I don't understand why blogs link to blogs. It'd be better if they just linked to the source.

Yeah, it will be until they run out of 60 gb ones. The price drop was a clearance sale. :(

Sony estimated that they could make it to the holiday season if I remember correctly, but no one really knows. It just depends on how fast they end up selling.
