Slightly tangential to Blu-ray and BD-Java discussions, but since the
Xbox 360 has an HD-DVD add-on and Microsoft backs the rival to BD-Java
called HDi (A javascript+XML derivative), this news is interesting
anyways...
XBox 360 is literally DYING in japan.....Not kidding...it sold 3600
units the week before, then 3300 units the last week...
Meanwhile, PS3 sold 44,000 and 32,000+ the last two weeks, about
double what is was selling earlier because of newer games coming
up...that's more than a 10:1 sales ratio in favor of PS3!

Microsoft Corp.'s Xbox 360 is in a sales slump following high demand
for handhelds and consoles from rival companies.
Media Create Co. on Fri. reported that the Xbox 360 sold 3,333 units
between Feb. 5 and Feb. 11. It sold 3,379 units the week prior.
Nintendo Co.'s DS Lite and Sony Corp.'s PSP held the top two video
game hardware sales positions, with the Wii and Playstation 3 holding
third and fourth, respectively.
The Xbox 360 was unable to rank any software in the top 50 software
sales.
The onslaught of momentum for DS, Wii, PSP, and PS3 have dealt a sales
blow to the Xbox successor, which enjoyed a brief increase in sales
during the holiday period.
