You raise a great point, but as far as I know, there hasn't been an Android device playing in the digital music players category. In the iPod market, it seems that the rest of the tech world just conceded to Apple.

From a pure economics perspective, what is called today 'open' and what was called 'IBM compatible' in the 80's, would always win a greater market share in the long term. It's a simple matter of supply & demand.

You are right that there was no price change in the US. However in many international markets there has been a price reduction between the original pricing of the first iPad and the iPad 2. In Australia, the difference is between $50-100 when comparing original iPad launch price and iPad 2 pricing (http://techstyles.com.au/ipad-2-price/ipad/). Funny to see that the case is different from country to country.
