Sony right now is making more money on vita than if they were selling twice as many at a lower cost. What they really want to do is continue offering content. 3 months ps+ and a game for 249$.

They could even hold until march 31 with exchange rates this nice, and several big games coming out.

31 st of March is early next year. They already announced the prices of Soul Sacrifice so until that game is released, there should be no price cut. I think they should try to combine the cut with the release of Killzone.

Ah yes, I see what you mean now.

Yeah, I would bank on a pricecut immediately after march 31, the end of the fiscal year, depending on how everything plays out. I would cut the wifi down to wifi down to 199$ with 3 months of ps+, get rid of the 3g model, and come out with a 4g vita xl for 259$.

I'd also begin work on a vita phone IMMEDIATELY.

They call that one an Xperia, but saying that, how do you really, truly think a phone will work? When it comes to your game console/handheld currently people expect a long life for such a device, when it comes to a phone people swap those every 1 yr or 2 yrs ususally, would that work for a handheld? 

I'm just talking about a Vita that can make phone calls.
1 to 2 yrs for a phone's life cycle is always due to feature improvement. Vita doesn't need or want feature improvement, but what would help drastically is if I don't have to carry a phone at all.
