dtewi, simple questions:
How old is PS3 by July 2008 (in terms of years or weeks) ?
How old was PS2 by July 2001 ?

Now, can you compare Life time sales or not?
PS3 is not doing as good as PS2 devided by regions. True.
PS3 is doing as good as PS2 by total sales since first launch. True.

Final Word: The PS3 is selling worse than the PS2.
OK. Big deal? It`s still doing great and better then x360. =) Moreover, will sell over 100 mln. LTD. =)
And reaching 16 mln. in 2008 is a great achievement. =) That one of the main points.

@HappySqurriel, but ps2 was selling whole year at 299$, while ps3 is at 399-499$, BUT has a chance for a pricecut(ADVANTAGE) this year, which could boost sales.
