[RE-wrenches] NY Times: 25% price reduction on PV

[penobscotsolar at midmaine.com]

I believe a more real world number is 10%. I believe you could find panels
that were selling for 25% more than the cheapest panels now, but that is
not a realistic view. To somehow infer that a, say, Sharp 180 or Sanyo HUP
has dropped 25% is once again creating a situation for we
design/install/sell guys that puts us in a bad place. I wonder who they
are talking to to get this information.......
