PlayStation 2 (impossibly) Reservable by Online (2/18/00)
 

  
While getting reservations of PS2 in Japan is currently stressful (ie: some stores have begun campaigns to "Win *a chance* to buy a PlayStation2"), PlayStation.Dot Com of Japan has boldy opened an online reservation form on their site. However, Sony's server cannot handle the requests (500,000 hits at its peek had even crashed the server once) and even reaching the form itself is a difficult task as of the current moment.

Sony assures that additional servers will be set in the near future.
