It won't be $199. We'll be lucky if it's $249 instead of $299. The console sells huge amounts even without a price drop, so Sony has absolutely no need to drop the price. And after PS3, Sony seems to be more and more after profits from hardware instead of profits from just software, and I'm not sure they could even sell the console at profit at $199. If I had to guess, I'd say they would profit uncomfortably little even if it was $249. Sony is aiming to maximize profits instead of userbase, and $199 probably doesn't help there.
Bottom line: I expect it to cost $299, but $249 too is possible.
