I was looking for a new phone contract recently and looked at Dial-A-Phone. They had loads of deals where you can get a new phone contract with a new PSP, PS3, ,Wii, ipod, plasma tv etc.
Might be worth a try. You can even get yourself a new shithot phone! tup:

We got one from Comet online this week with 3 extra games as well as the sports disc - they even delivered it for £5, went back on an hour later and they were out of stock again.
Delivered in 2 days as well and not paid over the odds, £180 + £60 extra for the 3 other games.

Some going on ebay today for £350 + £22.95 postage - 20 bids as well to get to that price!!!!
Some folk are making a lot of money out of this shortage.

Probably just wii sports.

Its supply and demand JD simple ethics at the moment.

Wiis are mega and even uber popular but the company cant produce enough.

People want them for xmas but nowhere guarantees them so clever people sell theres and make mega bucks.

I had a wii, it was quite fun but i sold it wish i hadnt now.
