If we are to believe Sony, that statement was about as accurate as reports of the presence of weapons of mass destruction in Iraq, but since some rumors are harder to kill than others... once and for all here is the latest denial from Reeves: "We're still on schedule to launch PS3 in March throughout the PAL territories. All speculation otherwise is without foundation."

Still skeptical? Wedbush Morgan, a company who makes it their business to check what other companies are up to, says Sony is probably telling the truth. "The logic behind a March European launch was that demand would subside in the US sufficiently to allow Sony to divert supply to Europe."

Now someone please get a shovel and bury this dead rumor before it starts to stink. Wait! What if the demand for PS3 does not taper off? Oh, well they can always delay it again. But for now March is still officially the European PS3 D-Day.

Woot!! March....or not , I'll believe it when it happens .
