Sorry but one headline does not make it true. The Kindle had already dropped from $400 to the $200 range. Everyone was discussing how long it would be before the Kindle hit the $99. Then came the SO Kindles and the price fell to the magic price point. There is still one 6 inch Kindle in the $150 range.

Maybe you can argue that Sony finally dropped its price in response to the IPad but the Nook, Kobo, and Kindle were well on the way down.
