>>Does anyone think that Olympus will respond to the economic crisis and the
cheaper yen by lowering OM prices either through price list changes or
rebates like some of the European manufacturers have done in the past?>>
They just raised prices in the middle of all this.
You are expecting Olympus to engage in rational economic behavior, which
they might, if they really were interested in selling more of the OM line.
But they are probably not.
Browsing through Shutterbug shows rebates/trade-ins etc offered by Nikon,
Minolta, Mamiya, Leica, Contax, Hasselblad, Canon.
Need I say more? :-(
