If we're talking about the UK, I'm not so sure about this. The low prices on Sony Readers at the moment are because they are clearing out old stock. By Christmas the new Sony devices will be in the shops, and (if Sony's pronouncements are to be believed) they will be more expensive than the Kindle.

I wouldn't be surprised if the new (touchscreen?) PRS-350 was priced at around the same point as the current PRS-300 was before the recent discounts, i.e. at about £125.

The other, smaller manufacturers would have to make significant and probably painful drops to compete with the Kindle price.

I see no incentive there for Amazon to drop their K3 prices.
