You know, this was the first X-mas for the PS3 in the "others" part of the world, could that be the reason there was such a huge spike in sales over the past couple of weeks?

 Agreed.  I do not know if Europeans are as into gift cards as we are in the US, but I would imagine that this past week's sales and perhaps this coming week's are going to reflect left over gift card sales for the PS3's first Euro xmas.  As complicated as it is to buy a PS/MS console now, I am sure a lot of parents/significant others wanted nothing to do with making the actual purchase for fear that they would buy the wrong one.  Of course this applies to the 360 as well, but I do not think nearly at the same level.
