It is true that the 360 is out selling the PS3, at the moment, however (in the UK) the 360 & PS3 sold the same amount of units each between now and the PS3's release date. However, globally it is a different story because the data collected by MS & Sony differ in how it's compiled. MS track consoles shipped & Sony track console sold. The figures are always debateable and are extremly hard to compare, don't forget the 360 had nearly 18 months head start over the PS3.
Anyway, the reason for MS developing the 720 on the time scale I mentioned is due to the PS3 being a 8 - 10 yr console. The 360 will not be able to compete with the advances made in that time, where as the PS3 will (as soon as game devs finally work out how to use the cell to it's fully capacity). I firmly believe that 2008 will be the PS3's year, with 8-10 exclusive AAA titles to come, compared to the 360's 5 exclusives.
I am well aware that this type of discussion can quite easily turn into fanboy against fanboy and I don't wish to go down that route.
On a last note, I agree, the Wii has proved itself to be extremely innovative and for a console is extremely family orientated, it deserves to be up there witht eh big boys.
