If you're going to count YEARLY sales, you probably shouldn't lump 2006 into 2007 sales. If you're doing that you might as well lump 2000 sales into 2001 on the basis that Japan was supply contrained the whole year and America and Others were only available for afew weeks.

@Linkzmax, you see, PS3 sold 1.2 mln. in 2006. Is there any point on talking about 1 mln. when we are talking about numbers like 100 mln. ?

Well, all i did, i took that 1 mln. from 2006 and moved it to 2007, as a MAIN YEAR of FIRST year life of PS3. =)
I don`t see here a BIG problem(EFFECT) when comparing 2001 and 2008 sales.
