UK PS3 debut not finalized

Sony UK is at least a month away from finalizing the region's deployment of the PS3, GamesIndustry reports. CentreSoft, the official UK distributor, is still formulating rollout schemes due to two potential problems. The first is a concern that Sony may go ahead with its 150-pound minimum pre-order cost; the second is ensuring that retailers can fill as many orders as possible on November 17th, rather than over the course of a few days. Sony itself says that "there are many unknowns we need to resolve before we complete our plans. One of these unknowns is production and production quantities." In other words, stores may be unable to meet demand because of low quantities of the PS3.
