Wishful thinking I'm afraid. 5D is not going to sell in very large quantities (for every 10000 sold 5D there'll be 1000000 sold APS-C DSLRs) and there is no competition from any other company in this area. And there's absolutely no situation like in D1 and D30 era, when compatition was higher and there was no cheaper alternative at all, that's why introductory price of these DSLRs fell quite quickly. These two factors won't allow for price drop of FF in the near future. Thus C 5D will remain a class for itself. And don't forget that so far many APS-C sensor sized DSLR users invested their money in APS-C dedicated ultra wide angle lenses, which usually provides better results than wide FF lenses on FF body...
