I think next year will be amazing for both PS3 and 360. Both libraries are looking like the best of any year so far. Next years sales for PS3 should be the peak year (IMO).
Wii will continue to dominate in total sales, however, it will probably peak next year with a full year at $199 with some great titles. Just in time for Wii HD...

If the Wii peaks next year it'll completely crush every record in gaming history including its own...so why would they need a Wii HD again if sales aren't going to suddenly drop to extremely low levels by 2011? 2012 will be when the "Wii 2" release...count on it.
Anyway, next year should be PS3's peak. I think next year will be the Wii's peak too. IMO the 360 peaked in 2008 and unless Natal helps tons (which I'm not really expecting) it won't peak.

Hard to say for the 360 because at the end of the year, 2009 numbers won't be far off 2008 numbers for the 360 ( maybe less than 10% off) so it still has a shot at doing better in 2010, it depends if there are any more price cuts and what exclusives get released...
I think it's going to take a miracle for the Wii to do better in 2010 than it did in 2008 ( which it would need to peak next year as you predict).
For starter you can expect the Wii to sell 1 to 2 million units less in Q1 2010 than it did in Q1 2009...
PS3-Xbox360 gap : 1.5 millions and going up in PS3 favor !
PS3-Wii gap : 20 millions and going down !
