Here's the pricing he's hearing:

8GB PlayBook: $399
16GB PlayBook: $499
32GB PlayBook: $599

Yes, the iPad has a bigger screen, and at the 16 gig level, the tablets are tied on price, so you could argue RIM isn't undercutting Apple. But, you can't buy any iPad for $399, yet, so RIM is winning on price.
Maybe more important that beating Apple, it's going to make it tough for Android tablets that come into the market to get a lower price.
