So PS3 will actually sell over 100K in July, amazing

Over 100k? It did 45k in one week so unless suddenly demand completely drops off last week and this week then it should easily pass that and pass 150k.

 Yeah, it's going to break 150k most likely. 100k is a given.

It will be interesting to see if there is any drop off in PS3 sales this week. I had predicted higher PS3 sales last week (60kish) because I believe its sales are tracking like an enthusiast's device: large spikes when new SKUs/prices/games are released. I was wrong, though. Still, I'm going to stick to my guns and say we'll see a hardcore-gamer-style dropoff this week, and guess that the PS3 will sell only 38kish for the week. We'll see!
