Whenever pigs sprout wings and begin mating with unicorns. In other words, possibly not very soon.
See, nVidia has no reason to alter the pricing of the GTX because it is the only current DX10 hardware with no competition. The only reason why the GTS' dropped in price is because the 2900XT proved to be somewhat of a competitor to it.
I wouldn't expect the price to drop anytime soon. Possibly in Q4 of 07 when the 9800 is rumored to appear. But then, you would want to dish out the big cash to net yourself one of those.

Looks like you might have spoke too soon. I know it is the INQ but it makes sense to me. Put the final nail in the R600 with a loweing in proce of the Ultra and GTX to make even the AMD die-hards jump ship.
