Re: Re: Digital camera sales in the USA

given that almost all digital camera vendors try to run with at most a 2.5 
day supply in the pipeline, you can be sure that what they make is what they 
are selling. the cost of inventory of the pipeline is enough reason for 
Canon to build another plant closer to the docks in an effort to cut the 
inventory to a 1.5 day supply.

You _can_ query them, though.  For example, what is meant by  "shipped"? 
Doesn't neccessarily mean that each of them ended up in a purchaser's 
hands....
