According to certain reports, Asustek Computer has started shipping PlayStation 3's back to Sony in small numbers as the manufacturing process is clearly underway. Two hundred thousand component sets were shipped to Asus in June and over one million are planned for September and October.
This means the hardware has finally been ironed out and that they're ready to get things started. Higher volumes are expected in the coming months, so it looks like their projected 2 million unit launch availability will happen after all. However, those units are going to be stretched thin over many a region, and if demand spikes then we could see a shortage before the end. But we'll cross that bridge when we come to it.
El 11 de noviembre de 2006 se lanzó en Japón,
y el 17 de noviembre de 2006 se lanzó en EEUU. En territorios europeos, se fue a marzo de 2007.
Con PS4 no sé cuándo podría haber empezado la producción en masa, aunque las circunstancias para producirla en grandes volúmenes más rápidamente son más favorables que con PS3: no emplea componentes exóticos como entonces eran el Cell, el Blu-ray
y sus componentes, etc.;
y además de Japón también se encarga de su producción gigantes en China como Foxconn.
Por cierto, la fuente del 21 de octubre (lunes) de Gaf señala que las fechas así señalan que sale en esa semana (21-27 de octubre), no que salga necesariamente el 21; también dicha fuente indica que no es la PS3 de 12 GB que sale en EEUU, ya que ese producto está listado específicamente:

Nope, this is already in our stock and to be released on the 18th if memory serves me right.
Edit:Reading page three right now. Just so everyone knows all I have is our internal release schedule and nothing more. Nothing is cast in stone and things can change (though they rarely do). To clairify the 21st date means the week of. It could launch on the Monday though.
As I said I am not an insider, just a normal guy. This rumor is not anything but a rumor right now, you guys know just about everything I do now.
And also for my own privacy and security I won't be answering personal questions. I really don't want to get fired.
