Everything drops. Once units get sold prices will drop A LOT. What did DVD players cost when they first came out? What about VCRs? 20 years ago a VCR would get you back $200-$300 now you can get a VCR that's better than those for $40. Back in the 50's a TV that wasn't even 27 inches and was black and white set you back $700. That's in 1950's money. Today that would be $5000 or more. I rememebr when Direct TV first came out. The dishes were $750. Now they're under $100.
