Apparently the Nintendo Wii is highly anticipated...
Amazon.com's website says:
"We are currently out of stock: We sold out of our initial supply of the Wii on Sunday morning, November 19, in less than one minute. We expect to receive periodic shipments of the Wii from Nintendo throughout the holidays and we will post availability updates in this section of the product detail page as well as in the customer discussions below."
This is one hot item for online sales. A great alternative for camping in line would be spawn camping websites for purchases. Many retail websites are crawling with lag due to gamers hitting "F5" on their keyboards hoping to see "out of stock" change to "buy now."
