I've sent an email to Screen Digest, but it's the weekend so I doubt I'll hear back before Monday. I'm pretty sure they're Chart-Track numbers as they have access to all the Sales Tracker's data. From one of their reports:

"Data sources
Among many sources of data, private and
public, used as inputs to Screen Digest
computer modelling, we would especially like
to thank the following:
ChartTrack (UK; +44/208 741 7585;

data

"754,000 consoles is estimated for 2007."

It says the 7,000 Blu-ray players is estimated, not the PS3 sales. For PS3 it says "about 754,000 consoles" which is too accurate to be an estimate.

The Q3 Wii figure matches well with Chart-Track's announcement a month prior that Wii had passed 1M.
