If Sony drops the price of the S300 much lower than it is now, then it will screw over their CE partners. Panasonic, Samsung, etc. are in this to make money, and the only way they'll be able to compete with a heavily subsidized Sony player is by subsidizing their own.

This is the main reason Toshiba is the only manufacturer of HD DVD players. Nobody else can compete with their prices.
