I wrote about worldwide sales in SONYs financial year (ends spring 2008)
Current numbers in your own link are:

Japan PS3 1,349,072 units until now
USA PS3 2.324.092 units until now
Europe/other PS3 2,078.340 units until now. Here sales started spring 2007 due to lack of units.
Total 5,751,504 units until now.

Current weekly sales are 199,430 units worldwide. That is 10 million per year, and we have to add the Christmas sales boost.

So SONYs target of 8 to 11 million units looks OK.

USA does not matter that much anymore. USA has less than 20% of the world economy, and that share keeps on dropping. You are living in the past.

HDTVs are expensive, so sales are related to GDP.
In Denmark I can only find HDTVs in shops, except of a few 14".
Your 10% for Europe and 60% for USA are very old numbers.
