Yep we were never in a disagreement on anything else. I just get fired up when I start talking finance and logistics.

Let me put it this way, if Sony does not have any big suprises up their sleeve for the fall, I think they will offset the lack of a killer app by dropping the price. They may still have momentum, but I think they would do it to preempt the loss of momemtum where as you seem to think (from my impression) that they will wait until they have lost some and use a drop to regain it.

Oh, no, Sony will have projections and targets. If they don't think they can meet those then they are more likely to drop the price. But we mustn't make the mistake of thinking Sony see this as a race to an arbitrary number. They don't think like your average forum user.

exactly why I think they will use a drop to increase momemtum, and it makes most sense to do it in the leadup to the holiday season where it can have the most impact. Meeting projections is great, exceding them does wonders for the share price. Sony has seen this snowball before with the PS1 and 2, hopefully they have not forgetton how to maintain it. They spent last gen trying to play catch up.
