Flash RAM prices dropping fast

I read that Flash RAM prices are dropping fast. And the article said that stock analysts are predicting this will help Apple get even better profit margins. Normally I would hope that when companies get their raw materials or parts for less money they would pass the savings onto the customer. I am sure Apple will do some of this to stay competitive. But I am actually happy Apple will keep some of the profits. I feel that when Apple has more money for R&D they will continue to make great new products.

I would say Apple will selectively lower some prices for competitive reasons, while continuing to reap some of the added profit margins on other products. That's why we love Apple - R&D drives the innovation!
