Actually it is stupid for Sony to sell as many as possible until they can get their costs for parts lower - as is right now, confirmed, sony is losing close to $300/system because they will sell around $600 and it costs close to $900 to build. The (again confirmed) partial reason for the delay in production until 07, especially for Europe, is because there have been promises from parts manufacturers of lowering their prices for Sony. Sony will take less of a hit, trying to control loss for 4th qtr earnings, and ramp up hype for first qtr while not having the losses on the systems....
