The key thing guys, is that the PS3 has not yet "warmed" up. It won't be until the end of this year, when the PS3 actually has some "quality" titles out - that we will have a much better idea of how this generation will go.
I think its more and more obvious that Sony should have launched later. The PSP & PS2 are selling well enough to have kept them going for another 12 months. Extra time would have given Sony time to work on online (launch with HOME?), work on games (launch with LAIR, Uncharted, Heavenly, Killzone, etc..), work on cost-cutting (launch ALL units with no emotion chip, perfect backwards compat, cheaper components) and launch with more units.
It would have saved them heaps of bad publicity and angst, and they actually would have had an excellent launch and made up the (extra) gap in no time at all (i.e. imagine a worldwide launch in October this year - with GTA4 as launch title, etc..).
There is a more than reasonable chance that sales could jump 2-4x once they actually release ALL their quality games (for this year) - which would bring them in line with Wii sales at least. And then its game on.
