Not at all. The first noticeable things they'd probably do are ramp down production to meet demand and stretch out product generations even longer. The improvements between generations would be much smaller when they did arrive. Prices would still likely go up generation over generation. The less profit they can look forward to from increasing unit sales from market demand, the more they'd start cutting corners to make their numbers from the demand that did exist... one way or another they will make as much money as possible. It's arguable that they've been doing a bit of this over the past couple of generations... it would get far worse in a chronic oversupply situation.
