What do you think we'll see in terms of price drop on the older version?

It's really tough to say, camera people are crazy

. Those lenses usually hold their value pretty well, it's going to be a game of "when is the good timing" with people trying to unload their v. I's so that they can upgrade to the v. II's., and throw in the variable of the stores dumping their v I stock in anticipation of getting in v II's. On top of all of that many might wait until the v. II's are tested by the review sites.
So in answer to your question, I don't know

I'm going to keep an eye on B&H and Adorama, and see if there are any threads on DPReview about it. FredMiranda's buy/sell forum is a good place to watch as well.
