"Midnight Madness" will only be held online and not in stores, although Best Buy locations frequently open at midnight for certain special events.

Brad Wilson, CEO of Bradsdeals.com, said that everyone should expect to see more deals on computers around the $200 range. Wilson also said that several other technology products should see some price cuts.

Wal-Mart, Amazon.com and Best Buy are offering smartphones with HD video recording, fast processors and high-quality camera phones for as little as $125 with a two-year contract.

"That's pretty remarkable. Typically high end phones are $200 or more," said Wilson.

As for TV prices, many retailers are selling 32-inch flat-screen HDTV's for $200. Blu-Ray players could also see a price decrease.

The Barnes and Noble Nook computer tablet will drop from $139 to $99. The Nook Color will drop from $249 to $199.

Amazon may give its Kindle Fire tablet a price cut, as well. There has been no official announcement on whether or not Apple will offer its iPad for cheap.

Wilson noted that less recognizable computer tablets would most likely sell for $60 and $90.
