Sony maintains PS3 shipment targets despite shortages - Joystiq:

Sony announced today that the company sees no reason to change its worldwide goal of shipping 2 million PS3s by year’s end and 6 million total by the end of next March. Apparently, production problems are no longer an issue. Sony President Ryoji Chubachi (not Chubaka) told Reuters: “It is true that it took us sometime to bring the PS3 to mass production as blue laser availability worked as a bottleneck, but production has reached a certain level and judging from that level, 2 million and 6 million are within our reach.”
