You definitely should be asking distribution on this, not a newsgroup.
Distribution will work hard to get you good quotes and will compete
against their competitors. But I will say that $0.70 is a pretty good
price. Also, most CPLDs are in multiples of 16, so you may have to bump
up to a 48 or 64 macrocell device which might not be competitive.

I believe Lattice (or was it Actel) has some new parts coming out that
are very price competitive, but they may all be larger than you want.
Like I said, $0.70 might be hard to beat.
