Sony's plan isn't to keep both the 80GB and the 120GBslim on the market for the same period of time. Sony will be cleaning the channels of the current 80GB models over the summer before they introduce the slim around August or September just the way they did last year with the 40GB to 80GB transition. The 80GB model will not be continued and will not be getting a price cut, which makes sense since it would cause Sony to lose more money than off the slim model.
Now whether the slim will get a $100 price cut when it releases or closer to October/November, that's the real question now.
