Well, Sony have been saying themselves for I don't know however long that there will be a Spring launch. I'm guessing that'll be sometime around May, or just after E3. If that is the case they haven't got long to start releasing any major details.

I sometimes think of these things like the Russian War Machine type thing. THink how long it would take Russia to call up all their men to arms, and to actually arm them and get them sorted to attack. In WWI they took 8 weeks. That's two months.

Now think of the gaming industry. Everything will need to be co-ordinated. Game makers and console manufacturers can't just start sending out games to the masses. THink of UT2007 coming out as a launch title (which it is) a month or two before the PS3.

For something of the scale Sony are maybe planning (world-wide release) they will need a lot of planning. So if they are going to get their Spring launch done, they need to start some time soon.
