Rumored prices for the NGP 2 models range anywhere between $250-$280 for the Standard Model (no 3G or extra features) and $280-$350 for the 3G Model.
The 3G model does require a subscription which will make it even more expensive once all the costs are added.
If true then Sony will be loosing a lot more money than when they released the PSP based on the specs for the NGP. It also gives them room to phase out the cheaper model in the future if sales are low or a better model comes out.

3DS release now at 4 days away for Japan and pre-orders in the UK/Europe have it as the #1 all-time pre-ordered system for both handhelds and console records.
Original plans were to release the system in June but leaks forced Nintendo to push the US and European launches 2 months earlier. It is also why Nintendo proclaims the launch window being 3 months long instead of the traditional 2 weeks to 1 month long.
