Two factors that could affect future publishing and distribution net revenue performance are console hardware pricing and software pricing.  As console hardware moves through its life cycle, hardware manufacturers typically enact price reductions.  Reductions in the price of console hardware typically result in an increase in the installed base of hardware owned by consumers.  Price cuts on Xbox, PS2 and GBA hardware were announced in March, May and September 2004, respectively.  Historically, we have also seen that lower console hardware prices put downward pressure on software pricing.  While we expect console software launch pricing for most genres to hold at $49.99 through the calendar 2005 holidays, we believe we could see additional software price declines thereafter.
