Default DSP's prices

Has anyone seen this page at BDTI's site?
http://www.insidedsp.com/showArticle...cleID=29100482

I'm just curious about the price of ADI TS203 (TigerSHARC).

They say:
"TI’s TMS320C6418, announced this month, is a relatively
low-cost addition to the high-performance fixed-point ’C64x
family. The chip is sampling at 600 MHz and, like the DSP56321VF275,
will cost about $50 in 10,000-unit quantities",
"Analog Devices’ competing TigerSHARC family—the
ADSP-TS203S, which sells for $47 and runs at 500 MHz".
As a comparison I supose this price is for the same 10,000 units.
But at ADI's site we have: "Per-unit pricing for the ADSP-TS201,
ADSP-TS202 and ADSP-TS203 in 10,000 units at 500 MHz is $299, $149 and
$34.95 respectively."

So what's wrong?

It could be an mistake of BDTI people, but I asked ADI's
representative for TS203 price for 100 and 1000 units and I got:
100 units => $61
1000 units => $55

?????????????????????????????
