Does anyone think the prices will come down now that we have freeview HD?

I doubt it to be honest. The cost is in the encoder chips which is why Freeview HD boxes are in a similar price range to the Freesat ones.

The cost of producing them hasn't changed and the $<>£<>€ ratio is still not favourable.

We would love to reduce the price, but we have to be a viable business as well.
