The comment about attach rates is very misleading. Most stores were only selling the Xbox 360 is "mega" bundles that included several games, extra controller, etc. You could barely find a store selling just the two standard SKUs.

>an ill-advised near-simultaneous launch in its three biggest markets

It's easy to write this when located in the market that usually gets those early launches. (With Japan getting a few)

Nothing annoys more than being in a market (Europe) that always comes last so this near-simultaneous launch is to be welcomed. It's a pity the film (and later DVD) makers don't follow suit.
