More likely they'll just remain on rough parity with the current minor bump following the inventory clearing sale on the SKU most consumers have been buying (20GB Pro).
Announcing a $50 price drop on the 60GB SKU immediately after clearing 20GB stock will not result in a subsequent surge of sales any more than Sony's transition from the 60GB to 80GB SKU did by dropping the price of 80GB to match following the inventory clearing.
If anything, an immediate drop would probably upset those who had bought "bargain" 20GB SKUs, only to see the improved models drop to the same price.
Although it would be a better deal for consumers (more HDD space at the same cost), a 60GB SKU would not move significantly more units than the 20GB SKU at the same price unless not all consumers can find the discounted models.
