If anything, people should learn to stay away from AsicMiners' stuff until they drop their prices, because they will do it.
All prices drop all the time. That laptop you purchased last year for $1500? Today you can get the same one for just $1000. It's how technology works!
No dude it is not. Manufacturers set prices based on product lines. The model has a manufacturers suggested retail price which probably will not change over the life of the product. If you bought abc tv at walmart and then a week later they dropped the price by 50% what would you do? I'd demand the lower price and you know what, walmart would give it to me because they understand marketing and sales.
Dropping a price by 50% a month after launch is just dumb and it's likely to confuse your prospective customers.
