Xbox 360 selling more than expected?

Xbox 360 has had big problems with availability because Microsoft has had a lack of components, therefore plunging sales. However now an analysts states that Xbox 360 may very well sell better than Microsoft had enticipated, and then MS has been very optimistic. P.J. McNealy at American Technology Research has published a report that says that Microsoft will most likely sell about 6 millioin Xbox 360 consoles until the end of June 2006 and that it will be able to reach 10-12 million sold consoles before the end of the year. Microsoft has earlier announced it hopes to sell 4.5-5.5 million before July 1 and 10 million before the end of the year.

Now it seems that Microsoft will not only be able to keep its planned sales, but also surpass them. But first of all it needs to fix the availability once and for all, as most stores in the USA still has few, if any, consoles available.
