It`s pointless,
GC started at 199$ when PS2 still costed 299$.
It`s all about games.

x360 had a pricecut in Europe, after that it went from from 40-45k to 70-75k

You contradict yourself in the next sentence already. Price drops do matter, and I know you are very good at repeating the greatness of a 299 euro PS3 yourself. ="Must Have"

The longer there hasn't been a price drop on the X360, the bigger the effect of one will be.

In the US the X360 doesn't have a reputation of a console that desperately has to drop the price all the time to be able to sell. So when one actually happens, it will mean something.

I'm hoping for a late summer price drop to $279. I beleive that would lift the sales from 55k to 75k steady sales per week in NA, beating the PS3 by 10K per week during the fall.

As the X360 is already over 2.5 year old and has a great game library, the importance of new game releases decreases. Plus the X360 game line-up in 2008 is almost as good as the PS3's.
