In a way the point of view is sorta influenced by availability of news. A very recent interview of foxconn workers was hard to get! Being interview by foreign press is a punishable offense and of course it is hard to get a true picture of the actual working conditions in the factory.
Apple is hesitating on opening a plant in Brazil. The governmental offsets and other factors may delay an opening of an Apple branded product.(in addition Apple likes to dismiss rumors and push other rumors in order to have a bit of secrecy.)
Basically the pressure to price drop on products can only get stronger. Quality stuff continue to hold their value (IPhone prices will never drop much) and stuff that are not in demand will drop drastically and disappear from the market (HP Touchpad)
