You're numbers are off.  The PS3 Slim launched on Sept. 1st in America.  A few stores (and definitely not any major retail stores) did break the launch date by a few days, but not a few weeks.  The first week sales in America for the Slim launch was 164,166.  The first week you have listed (105,931) was a boost from the old models dropping to $299.

Several articles and shops on a quick Bing search will give the release date for PS3 SLIM in August.

The offical release date for the slim was september 1st bud.

Gamestop sold a week early on and offline. Bestbuy also broke the Sept 1st by a week. 

The official release was without a doubt Sept 1st. But it clearly isnt what happened at US biggest game selling retailers. BUD.
