Ci7 prices have no where to go but down, especially given marginal performance improvement over penryn - a drop-in upgrade.
Obviously i7 prices will go down at some point, but I don't think any downwards price movements for it will take place in December or be announced in December in response to anything from AMD.

I do think Penryn prices will be adjusted because of both AMD and i7.
