The pricepoint of $250 wouldn't be so bad if the games and accessories weren't also expensive. Sony needs to realize that they don't have the brandname power to sell high-end, expensive products like Apple does. Seriously, fifty dollar handheld games? FIFTY DOLLAR HANDHELD GAMES? Meanwhile the 3DS has several games on sale and the most popular titles are at $40.
I'm positive that the Vita will improve in sales and we'll look back at this period a couple years later in amusement. But Sony definitely needs a change in their business model.

Yeah, $50 handheld games....so? Uncharted Golden Abyss has better graphics and game play than any $50 CONSOLE game. Being on a handheld doesn't automatically mean it's less worthy as a game.

Except you'll be playing Golden Abyss on a 5 inch screen. Point is, at a time when phones are making games cheaper than ever, games on dedicated handhelds are going up to as much as $50 (in a tough economy no less). It's a little more excusable on the 3DS since the system itself is cheaper, but I still don't like the practice one bit.
By the way, nice job saying Golden Abyss will have better gameplay than ANY $50 console game. Really lending credibility to your point.
