Thread,

Is any one else concerned about the availability of the Voodoo3 products? Voodoo3 started shipping almost 3 weeks ago and many popular e-tailers still do not appear to have stock. For instance, BuyComp.com has not stocked the Voodoo3 3000 to date.

There are a few possibilities that come to mind...

1) TDFX is strongly favoring certain retailers. For example, EBWorld signed a mutually beneficial agreement with TDFX.

2) The demand far exceeds the supply.

3) In preparation for large OEM launches, TDFX had to limit the supply to the retail channel.

4) Production has been limited.

Can anyone else comment? Have people observed large stacks of products at their local retailer? Has anyone received a Voodoo3 from BuyComp.com or any other e-tailers that do not show product in-stock?

I would hate to see customers lost to competitors solely due to lack of availability.

Joel
