Eh...so let's take an extreme case. Amazon Japan has only 5 XBoxes available. They sell out in a few hours. Is this such a good sign?
I'm not saying that's what happened. For all we know, Amazon Japan had three hundred units that sold out within hours. But my point is that for all we know, they could have had only 5 (although I doubt it).
I don't see this selling out as a good sign. It's also not a bad sign. The only thing we can take from this is that if you're Japanese, you won't be able to get an XBox off Amazon. If you read anything else into it, you're just buying into propaganda (hey, what did you expect from company representatives?).
