I'd say wait for 10 million.

11 million by February at the latest.

Providing we're not overtracking, 10m is a shoe in. 800k next week takes it to nearly 9m. That's 250k a week for December, easy.

800k next week? Wii did 673k on its respective Black Friday in 2007. And it's the PS4 that's tracking close to Wii this holiday season, not Xbone (not even close). If Wii "only" did 673k, what makes you think the XBone will do 800k?

OT: 10.5M

Because it did 500k this past week, why would you expect it to get a minor boost in the US on such a huge week?

Compare the week prior to BF to this week.

Maybe, if those numbers stand. It did "444k" last week, but that was adjusted down to 411k. And, as others had pointed out when we finally got October NPD numbers, the October overtracking is still affecting numbers in November. I'm of the opinion that this 491k will probably get adjusted down, and then no way will it get boosted by 63% with only one region carrying its back to reach 800k (if 491k stays, it'd be a 63% boost)

I mean, seriously. 100-150k is way more than a "minor boost" (especially with the US being the region that will get the overwhelming brunt of those sales). But I definitely don't see it getting a 300k+ week on week boost before/after Black Friday. No console has done that in its first full year Black Friday. And 2014 isn't exactly a record breaking year for XBone, in comparison to other "history making" consoles (which didn't get that kind of boost in respective years)
