I wish someone would just make a really kickass device that blows the competition away. Then maybe we would have some "peace" time for a few months.
Well, that's exactly the scenario that the camera manufacturers followed five years ago. (including Sony, so they ought to be mentally and emotionally prepared not to weaken or blink). Of course, this price/technology war drove some long time manufacturers out of business.

If this turns out to be the case, be prepared for some of your favorite smaller manufacturers to disappear.
