The PS3 slightly over the 360 again. That's not good for 360 because the Americas is their home territory. And, they need to be thousands ahead of the PS3 in America to offset the pops the PS3 almost always gets from Europe and Japan.

At this rate and with the big Spring releases on their way, Sony could cut the margin down to under 5 million for the first time in a long time very soon and closer to 4 million by E3. And maybe down to 3 million by the time Arc and Natal are released.

One commentator that I've listened to said Sony could come close to ending this timed dlc advantage for the 360 if they could narrow the margin down to 3 million.

Will Microsoft announce a price cut for 360 in the near future to try to prevent this from happening?

It took two price cuts in Europe for 360 to get the advantage from the PS3 there last time, but one would think one could certainly do the trick in the Americans, and they might be on the verge of needing one.
