Sony has stated that they were not planning on dropping their price to compete with the Xbox. With that being said, I'd expect it sometime midsummer or later.

I'm thinking we might see a price drop sometime this month.
By E3 at the latest. Sony always says "we're not dropping the price" right up untill they do. They want to squeeze a few more sales out at $179.

I spoke to my Sony Rep today.
Sony has no plans to drop the price of the PS2 as they don't see Xbox as competition. The reason is because Gamecube outsold Xbox last year, making Xbox in 3rd place. Don't expect a price anytime before Christmas.

Price Drop. Lower prices = increased sales. Once Sony sees the huge jump in Xbox sales, they'll lower the price. They can't afford not to.
