That was day 1, which is why Sony is claiming to still have some sort of record with the PSP since the opening weekned numbers haven't been worked out or something... 

Given the PS3 sold 165k first week, I imagine the PS4 should be able to do 50% more

Well as long Sony has consoles it will break every record.

In Berlin - At 3pm 1000 people were already waiting
Just 200 people were waiting at 11pm for the Xbox One one week earlier.

240k my prediction for UK

UK will be next Sony Land.

With 6 hours to go in the UK, we have ~25 non-preordered PS4's at my store (supermarket) and we've already had to start turning people away. Absolutely ridiculous.

140k

260k is my prediction.

Go for a well rounded 250k

Dude,your sig gets me everytime.

OT-237k no less.

C'mon people..., don't be shy..., let's go to 300k..., i don't want to be the only right when numbers are known!!

150k

The 140k figure was a quick estimate by multiplying the 360's launch numbers by two. The article later updated with an exact figure.
