Sony Sells 60-70% of Sony PSPs in First Week

According to a survey done by CSFB, Bloomberg reports Sony sold about 600,000 to 700,000 units in the first week of release. This is about 60-70% of the initial 1 million units shipped to retailers. Sony please listen to me, if you get rid of the Value Pack and just sell the PSP like you do in Japan, I promise millions of gamers and myself will buy one. Be like Nike and just do it.
