Ahhh, so the comment/comparison is about prior generations of products. That is where I wasn't sure and thus asking the honest question.
Of course, I'm sure a 200 or 300 series GTX is in the bargain bin. Same with used/older generation cars, TV's, consoles.
I was looking at prices of the latest iteration of products. They certainly are fairly stable. Like you say, the 360 was $500 - the Xbone will be $499. I'm sure you can find older iPhone 2 & 3's for cheap.
EDIT:
Perhaps I am incorrect - you are complaining that decreasing pricing model of the iPhone 2/3/4 is out of date? Or the latest iteration, newly shown iPhone 5S?
