1) Youre chances of getting a PSP by pre-ordering a month before the launch I say are slim to none, so do it NOW.
2) Im sure Gamestop will do Online pre-orders as well like EB Games is doing. The pricing on the bundle from EB Games is just an estimate, so the price may change.
3) J&R may let you order the PSP online once the have it in stock. Id find a way to put $20 PSP pre-order ASAP. Ive pre-ordered two of them.

Im in the UK and I dont think there will be any problem pre-ordering a month before release. I think there will be plenty available on launch day - maybe not in the weeks afterwards though....
Its usually only the die hard fans that pre-order consoles, most other people will go and buy them on or in the few days after release.
The only problem is that the guy is in South America? Not too sure about shipping and releases over there, but if there are no good reputable dealers I'd suggest ebay ( however if shortages do occour its going to be very expensive ) or order it online from a good store.
Game ( the store ) here in the UK take pre-orders strangely, for GTA:SA it wasnt on a numbered basis - i.e. if you were number 75 you would have priority over customer 76 and so on. Everyone had the pre-order slip but just joined the que at midnight in a first come first served basis. Even if you pre-ordered that title before everyone else, if someone ordered it the day before release and got in line half an hour before you, chances were that he got the game and you missed out due to shortages!

SONY is not planning on making millions a month to sit on shelves.
This will be a VERY HOT item and may be somehwat hard to find at first.
As was the PSTwo during the holiday season last year.....
There are no official pre-orders yet, but you can put 5 to 20 dollars(or more) down at most stores for pre-order.
I think once pre-orders are official they will go pretty fast....so don't underestimate the demmand

the chances are not all that great because of such a masive ship ment places are puting in there orders early so a 1 month before releace maybe a little to late....it would be better to just do it now to insure you get it. :D

yea you might as well get a preorder in now cause a lot of people are waiting until the official price and launch date to put money down so the higher up on the list you are the better.

thats just balderdash..... :?
I have pre-ordered many things and whoever it may have been(I pre-ordered from) didn't always have enough.
Sure its not always the case, but it happens
Haven't you ever heard of "back-order?"

Gamestop allos you to pre-order. If you pre-order at the store you don't have to get a bundle as you do online.
