Post-E3: DS Shortage Possible
Laptop Battery According to reports, Nintendo President Satoru Iwata has expressed that Nintendo may not be able to efficiently boost profit from the Nintendo DS like they did with the GBA due to a possible shortage of liquid crystal display screens. The reason for the shortage is related to the fact that each DS unit needs two screens.
Iwata says, "Ordinarily, if we said to a supplier that we plan to make a product with two screens, they would be happy, but this time they said, 'Two screens, that's a bit of a challenge.' Of course we have no intention of taking a huge loss in the beginning, but I'm not sure if we can efficiently boost profit from the start like we did with the Game Boy Advance, but this is something I think we can repair with time."
For gamers this means it could be hard to pick up a Dual Screen later this year when it releases and your pre-order could end up taking longer than expected.
According to the indictment, Jones would steal various IBM and Penguin computer servers from Verisign's warehouse in Virginia and sell them to Johnson. Johnson would then sell the servers to several individuals, who would sometimes place them for sale on eBay. As a result of this scheme, the indictment alleges that Jones and Johnson caused Verisign to lose more than $120, 000 worth of computer equipment. In the indictment, Jones and Johnson are charged in three counts with causing the interstate transportation of stolen property, namely IBM 330 and 335 servers, in violation of 18 U.S.C.
