Cheap Aussie dollar

Well, the Aussie dollar has fallen significantly over the past month, and this seems to have started with higher prices appearing in the shops. I can see that Dell and some other shops have jacked up prices, and this can only be a bad thing... I was looking at a cheap netbook and some cheap IT stuff, but having kept an eye on websites like fluidtek and ccpu, I have seen them put prices up week by week.

If this keeps happening, I can only assume that plenty of people are going to delay any sort of purchse until after the new year. (Thats providing that they are still in the position of considering spending money on these things, as opposed to just chucking it in the mortgage)
