Eventually they'll find the highest price it will sell just well enough.
$199 was too low for the hardware. Glad they did it; but still, it was a misstep.

Like you said earlier, they could achieve that price point if they stripped out some of the fancier features; ie, all those cameras for Dynamic Perspective.

One other thing. I wish they'd change the OS to 4.5. I hate 3.6; the user interface is horrible.
