I await and trust in the political-economic process and will go to school when prices are reduced in half and the minimum wage goes $11. Waiting isn't that bad with Gamecube either.

And would you really want to invest in a $2.48 a watt panel? You get what you pay for and quality cost less in the long run. How much money will you pay out in the mean time to your local electric provider? And will your local electric provider still provide a rebate a year from now? I hope so, I think so. But I don't know so!!!!! The cost of labor to install will never go down, the cost of permitting will never go down, the cost of research and development will never go down. Actions speak louder than words. Well, you can “hope” and “believe” and “think” all you want but it does not make it so! And would you really want to invest in a $2.48 a watt panel?
