With Microsoft introducing a kinect-less XB1 at the same price as the PS4, I imagine that this puts some pressure on Sony to reduce their own price so they can continue dominating the NA and UK markets.
Is it possible for them to cut costs enough to drop the PS4's price $50 before christmas?
Also how long will it take Hynix/Samsung to develope 8Gb GDDR5 chips, and then how long before we start seeing them in PS4's?

I ask because i plan to hold off buying a PS4 until it gets a few changes, they are:
1] 8Gb GDDR5 chip (that is double the current 4Gb chips).
2] Die shrink; 20nm/16nm/14nm any is fine I just want less heat and power consumption.
3] Smaller console, likely the "Slim" update.
4] Fully White PS4 and controller(black buttons and sticks are acceptable), not this ugly 2 colour scheme they are using on the "red" and "blue" controllers.
