Looking at the SonyStyle website, it seems Sony is charging way too much for their lenses and accessories for the A100. It's expensive by any standards (Canon/Nikon) and especially so with the old KM/Minolta gear, when they are nothing more than new badging.
Thoughts?

Maxxum 7D, 7000
AF 17-35 f2.8-4, 28-85 f3.5-4.5, 28-80 f4-5.6, 50 f1.7, 75-300 f4.5-5.6
Hopefully the prices will come down soon, 'cause I really want the 70-200G F2.8 w/ SSM, and I would really prefer not to pay $2600 for it :D (I think I saw MSRP was $2600, but now I can't remember where I saw that.)

I understand Carl Zeiss lenses being expensive but the rest is kinda funny... If My memory doesnt fails KM lenses had very competetive prices (when compared to nikon/canon)
