Incase it wasn't mentioned, EBgames.com is now advertising the fact of a 'new low price'. So it wasn't just lowered for a sale, its the new price.
EDIT: Gamestop now also advertises the new low price. Waiting for the other 2 systems to follow suite.

Microsoft Cuts U.S. Price on Xbox Game Machine 10%
By Dina Bass
Bloomberg News
Los Angeles, May 14 -- Microsoft Corp., the world's largest software maker, cut the price of its money-losing Xbox video-game machine 10 percent to $180 in the U.S. after rival Sony Corp. reduced the cost of its PlayStation 2 consoles.
Microsoft announced the cut at the Electronic Entertainment Expo video-game show in Los Angeles. Sony yesterday said it will sell PlayStation 2 machines with a modem for Internet gaming for $200 and units without one for $180 in North America.
Sony's console has outsold Xbox by about 6 to 1. Microsoft is investing $2 billion in Xbox and its Internet gaming service to grab share in the $27 billion market for video-game hardware and software as sales of personal computers slow. Microsoft was counting on the Xbox's built-in online gaming capability as a sales advantage over PlayStation 2, which had required users to buy a modem.
