We sold out of all our units in a few days, they were selling for about £410 each at the lowest price.

Yeah, they do overheat and crash very frequently, I'm glad I didn't get one. Even the in-store demonstration model keeps on crashing every day. Personally I don't see how they can justify releasing an expensive console with expensive games and only to turn out that they don't work. Surely they would test the untis BEFORE sending them out?

As for the PS3, you've got a looooooong wait for that, Japan is getting it in the Spring so it's expected here about Summer or later. February is when we will get more, Microsoft isn't letting us have anymore units.
