I would argue that Sony is better off pricing the PS4 at $399 even if they lose a bit of money upfront as they will more than make up for it in software and accessorie sales and not to mention subscriptions.
A lower RRP will ensure larger initial console sales and should help with maintaining sales momentum overall. After having a tough time building up a reasonable install base on the Vita Sony will be desperate to establish a viable install base as quickly as possible on the PS4 and with their current strategy I think that is likely to happen.
I can also foresee them having PS4/Vita bundles as well in an attempt to leverage PS4 sales success into success for the Vita.
