25,000 Xbox 360's forecast to be sold in Czech Republic by the end of the year, with 10,000 forecast for this financial year (Jul 08 - Jun 09). Should be over 20k in Czech Republic at the moment. Somewhere around 30k combined in Czech Republic & Slovakia (6k through Jun 08). If Sony are to be believed then PS3 is somewhat higher.

Very good numbers for Czech Republic considering the population (~10m), but it is more wealthier than most other countries in the region.
