I think people have learned their lessons though.

Only thing, MS is not going to let their lead vanish so easily, I expect a big price war next year, but the scariest thing for the 360 is very simple :

$199 PS3

That would also be the scariest thing to SCE's bottom line.  With all the "profitability in 2010" talk we're hearing, I doubt we'll see another $100 loss leading drop next year... maybe $50, and that's even a big maybe.  Expect more value-added moves next fall instead (HDD upgrades, software bundles, Swand bundle, etc).  I think we'll see the same for Nintendo (NSMBundle?), and maybe even Microsoft (ie: Arcade phased out, $199 Elite).

I have heard this song before, but each year the ps3 cost less to make and i expect an even cheaper version late next year. $299 is still quite expensive for 4 year old console.

Yes, I am predicted an even slimmer version late next year with 250 gb for $200 dollars.

I've also predicted that, just not next year...

If you notice, Sony theselves have never called it the "PS3 Slim". And lets face it, it's not exactly that slim right now
