They either need to whip out an HD add on or lower the price more than they have. It really doesnt make sense to be selling it at 199 when the 360, and HD console) is also 199.

If consumers are will to buy it at $200, then why not?

You know you are a customer...

So what's exactly is your angle in encouraging companies to rip you off ???

It has nothing to do with being ripped off. It's just economics 101. Consumers demand the product at different level at different prices. If consumers are willing to buy it at $200, then I don't see a problem. The PS3 was not being bought at $600, so the price dropped to a level consumers felt was reasonably price.
