PS3 has outsold the 360 in Europe, not in "others" it appears.

Regardless of the distinction, this is pretty fast considering the 16 month lead Microsoft had.

Anyone surprised at the speed. Oh and what is the rest of "others", aside from Europe?

You talk about shipped/sold to customers?
If yes
a) I think he doesn't care since he gets the money from shipped.
b) I really do not think that there are more PS3 lying around in shops than 360. Besides over long timeframes shipped is as significant as sold. (This may be different for weekly sales of course but over a year its negligible)

Wait, if they have sold a little over 5 million in Europe alone, they have only sold .22 more in the rest of "others" according to this site? What does "others" consist of, this seems low.....
