Note the second advert which gives retail prices. AUD1.40 per watt for monocrystalline, $1.30 per watt for polycyrstalline. German modules.
The blended price from the last Trina Solar conference call (presumably a wholesale price which is higher than a retail price) is $1.46 per watt. They told us that they had seen their prices stabilize.
Sorry. No dice. This gets worse. Much much worse.
