I agree with you 100%.  The effective price is $349.  But, that has nothing to do with the original comment.  People don't care what price a system was launched at.  They only care what they pay for it and what they get.  So, comparing a completely different models and saying they dropped the price is just innacurate.  That's like comparing(here comes the car analogy) a Chevy Tahoe to a Cadillac Escalade.  They essentially are identical in their general features, but in the end they are not the same.  The Escalade will have a number of features that are not on the Tahoe.  The Escalade will cost $10-20,000 more. So, do you quote the price of the Escalade or the Tahoe when saying the price has changed?

Ok guess I can agree with you. You are right.

Fun note:

The XB1 has only dropped its price by $50 from $500 since launch. You can now get an XB1 for $349.99. Its funny how they are both true yet actually mean two very different things.
