Premature launch? (Score 1)

Was there ever a time when you and the others at SCE felt that maybe you were launching the PS3 too soon? Microsoft launched the Xbox 360 a year ahead of PS3 and Wii to get some sort of arbitrary "lead"; selling around 7-8 million units. Yet, in a 3 month block, the Wii has sold around 60% as much as it's taken MS to sell in over a year. Meanwhile, the PS3 is clearly limping along and will spend a good deal of this console generation playing catch-up anyway. Do you think a year of further development, manufacture of Blu-ray lasers, creation of a more robust launch game catalog and perhaps even some intense number crunching to get a lower price point would have made any difference? (Not to mention the addition of controller rumble...) Or was their just a concern that the "other two" would have gotten too far of a lead for the PS3 to penetrate the market in a desirable timeframe if it were launched any later than it was?
