During Activision's recent financial results conference call, CEO Robert Kotick announced Activision's projections for 2007 console sales for North America. Griffith noted that the company expects the PS3, Wii, and our beloved 360 will all sell 4 million units. Effectively, this means the Xbox 360 will maintain it's lead over its new gen competition, at least according to Activision. Key titles for Activision's profitable 2006 include popular 360 titles like Call of Duty 3, Tony Hawk's Project 8, and Marvel: Ultimate Alliance. Call of Duty 3, as our readers will know, has been a mainstay on Xbox Live for quite some time.It's clear that Activision sees a bright future for the 360. We have to wonder if they were looking at the pre-order numbers for Guitar Hero II when they made this prediction.

is this saying 4 million of each will be sold in that time span, or that they will all have 4 million sold than? cause i thought wii and/or 360 are over 4 mil. (PS: Does anyone have a link to a sales chart comparing the 3 consoles?)

I think they're saying that 4 mil will ship during this year.
Here's one of the sales trackers:

Actually, Activision specifically says that the Xbox 360 will sell 5 million systems in 2007, and they expect the Playstation 3 to sell 4 million systems, and they expect the Wii to sell 4 million systems.
According to Activision, the Xbox 360 will actually gain 1 million systems over the competition.
