Isn't it a little late in its career for the Xbox to be in demand?

A Microsoft representative confirmed the shortage but would not disclose details.

"It's true that surging popularity has led to an inventory issue at retail," according to a statement. "Alongside our partners, we are working to increase our inventory position to catch up with the consumer demand for Xbox."

Microsoft posted better-than-expected Xbox hardware sales over the 2004 holiday shopping season, thanks largely to the overwhelming interest in its "Halo 2" game.
