Is it because its the holidays? I always noticed that apple prices never went down no matter what time of the year it is.

Where are you looking? Apple Store prices are the same as usual...

I mean at the regular electronic stores

They are exactly the same at all the stores as far as I can tell. Best Buy, Circuit City, MacConnection, Walmart, and the other stores seem to be normal priced.

What? I am looking at the best buy website right now and it says all ipods for sale the touch starts at 284 same for circuit city and amazon. When I see stores doing this I start to think they are trying to get rid of what they have in stock but isn't it to early for an update?

Hmm, I was just in these stores yesterday and they were normal. It must be a web-only special. It's not a huge sale. They are just trying to get as many sales in as possible, most likely.

$284 for the iPod Touch has been the typical Amazon price since it was introduced. Amazon usually has classics and nanos for about $10 less than full list; the Touch is often $15 off for silver and $20 off for black.

Looks like WMT, BBY, and others are price-matching AMZN.
