Guys - check this out - it shows the natural trend for sales post Xmas:

They peak around Xmas week, and immediately fall away (ignore the PS3 curve for now).

By 1st Jan, Wii sales halved - and 360 sales dropped by 2/3rds.

A week later, the 360 had lost another 30% of sales - and another 10%-20% a week after that.

Expect the same this year. The PS3 will settle to around 120k-150k/week, with the 360 similar (or maybe slightly lower) and the Wii around 200k/week.

If the PS3 ends up around 8.5m sold (likely), its going to take around 2 months to hit 10m sold (start of March) - with 11m-12m sold by end of March, depending on software released.

Anything more than that, will require a lot of "pushing" from Sony (another bundle, price cut, more software, etc...).
