First, it is not unique to Apple, the Brasilian law gives the tax reduction to ALL tablets who produces a percentage of their products on Brasil (many android tablets also got this reduction).

Second, the price may not even drop, it is not required for them to drop. Like the iPhone4 which was produced in Brazil, it was sold for the same price as the ones produced in China, even though it was produced in a "zone" (Zona Franca de Manaus) where also have tax reduction.

Unfortunatly and most likely Apple will enlarge their profit rather than reduce the price.

Obs. Want an more comical fact about Apple in Brazil?? see this link:http://goo.gl/FQYHI

Translate with google on any other thing. Long story short, the guy bought one iphone4S and got an atonishing rock.
