Should Microsoft have priced XB1 at $399 (with Kinect) despite taking a $100 loss per unit?

I think they are taking a big loss at $500, more than Sony is on the ps4, so I think $400 is out of the question for them.

X1 is not gonna be sold at loss. PS4 will be sold at loss.

Oh then the $500 price tag is pretty messed up and should be $450 at max.  I expect a price drop a lot sooner than normal.
