Well it's official earnings projections that they base projected revenue and profit on. Sure it can be wrong, but predicting huge numbers to your stock holders and doing nothing drastic that will help it reach that target is guaranteed to backfire.
Like when they predicted 15M PS3's sold, it seemed impossible - then we got the Slim release along with a $100 price cut.
I'm hoping Sony has something like that up their sleeve.
