That should come down with competition and volumes.  I remember salivating
over DVD recorders when they were $1,000 about two short years ago.  I saw
one recently for $99.00 retail.  How long could this take really?  It
seems to me that the OEM radios in new cars are the ones we really need to
give HD Radio legs.  

By the way, saw this short clip on CNN; "Earth-based radios strike back". 
I couldn't figure out how to send the link directly to the video, but you
can see it on this page in the upper right hand corner.  Enjoy:
