I could be wrong, but with how you suggest the PS3 will have sold up until 2011 I see no reason why it would continue to sell at any noticeable level past 2012 ...

With the way technology improves, by 2011 Microsoft and Nintendo will be able to produce a system (at least) 4 to 8 times as powerful as the PS3 with built in Blu-Ray/HD-DVD player and 64GB worth of Flash memory for $200 to $300. The sales you suggest for the PS3 does not justify a lot of exclusive support and third party publishers will not see it as a priority when they need to start re-allocating resources towards the next generation of consoles and portable systems.

Yet PS3 has proven the most powerful system doesn't win right? ( I  seriously doubt the next Big N console will be  much more powerful then ps3.) I too believe PS3 will eventually gain steam after it price reach around $250. I also doubt Flash memory will be cheat enough (like the Blu -Ray with PS3) to be by the next console generation. PS3 as a console is too far ahead of it time for it's own good. 

 It'll gain steam but it still occupies a very different niche than Wii, even its Blu-ray capabilities won't help it since by then other Blu-ray players will probably have dropped below its price
