I actually hadn't noticed this quote before, and I believe it settles it?

Yes, that does it. Thank you.

But on another note... they're crazy. I mean... 10 million to retailers in 3 quarters? Retailers that already have 600 thousand in stock? That will simply refuse to carry more than 2 million stock after Christmas? They couldn't pull that one off, even if it sold another 8 million to consumers till the end of the calendar year.

Thank you for pushing me to find the definitive proof ;)

Yes, they are crazy. Maybe they're planning to gradually drop the forecast in the Q2 and Q3 reports? If they don't, it will certainly backfire when they publish their final fiscal year report...

Knowing how they always seem to choose the most stupid alternative, I'm betting on the latter. Or at least, I'd say they won't change it in the Q2 report, because "come on, Christmas is coming, why would we drop the sales forecast now?".
