March 15 (Bloomberg) -- Sony Corp., the world's largest maker of video-game players, is maintaining its forecast of selling 6 million PlayStation 3 units for the fiscal year that ends in March, a spokesman said.
Sony will provide estimates on May 13 for shipments of PlayStation 3 for the fiscal year that ends in March 2008, Nick Sharples said today in an interview at the Cebit trade fair in Hanover, Germany.
Sony will start a beta test in April for a new interactive avatar-based community that will be integrated in the company's PlayStation, Sharples told reporters at a press conference in Hanover.
Tokyo-based Sony had to postpone the PlayStation 3's European debut after a parts shortage for the machine's Blu-ray DVD player. Sharples said sales in Europe will start March 23.

This might mean 2 things
1) Sony knows that they cannot sell another 4 million consoles until March 31, and re-arranges it's target for next March 
or
2)Might be a typo and Sony is being (again) way too confident.
I think you misread it ... Sony plans to ship 6 Million consles by March 31st 2007 and will announce their planned shipments for March 31st 2008 on May 13 2007 ...
Oh lol that makes sense (it's just that English is not my native language

Sorry PS3 fans!
