He also pointed out that, just like the PlayStation 4, price will fall with time. Yoshida was unwilling to hint at a price point, but a focus on the quality of the experience before thinking about cost may lead to a better headset that's more comfortable for players.

Personally, I think that's a weird thing for him to say. I also don't think it bodes well for the price of the headset.

Well up until this time PS4 hasn't dropped in price. So...

it has certainly dropped in price per unit for Sony

I think Sony is in a position to drop the price by $50 right now if they wanted to or as much as $100 if they waited till August/September. The only reason they haven't is timing and that of course they are still selling so well at $399. 

I really believe that by the time Morpheus is released the PS4 will cost $299, so the standalone Morpheus kit (headset, camera and one/two move controllers) will probably cost $250 and there will be a PS4+Morpheus bundle for $499. 

The Morpheus headset will probably cost Sony around $130-$150 to make, camera around $30, move around $25 and the Morpheus external box around $30.
