My guess on pricing will probably be something like:

$299 slim Xbox 360 with Natal

$199 slim Xbox 360 with Natal

$80-120 natal with game.

Remember people the console hasn't dropped more than 33%. It launched at $399 and $299 and its currently at $199 and $299.

Sure, if everything that fanboy wantd to come true (slim, natal, no price hike, free dominos pizza), this would basically be it.  I think a better question would concern what would be most likely to happen?

Well, Valhalla is definitely coming.   Whether it is 1 65nm die, 2 45 nm dies or 1 45 nm die is unknown.  Since it didn't launch this year, my money is on 1 45 nm die launching with Natal.  Obviously, we don't know what other revisions will take place when the shift to Valhalla occurs.
