I still have to be skeptical until numbers are confirmed, but I've been saying 2007 would not be pretty for the PS3. I didn't expect it to ever dip below 150k in any month, but this wouldn't shock me if confirmed. It's not something Sony exec should be jumping off of buildings over. As a few have mentioned the DS had a month early on when it dipped under 100k. I don't see things getting much prettier until a price cut or a big system seller comes. It has three competitors that are cheaper, including one of it's own in the PS2, and I expect for the year those three will sell consistantly better.
I agree with that last sentence, but actually, that's exactly the reason I think they should be jumping off of buildings. When DS dipped, it's not as if PSP sold incredibly by comparison. By the time PS3 can start closing the gap, it might be too late--if it takes another ten months, that's trouble to be certain.
