DNAvision offers Human WGS for 7,500 euros

I had imagined exome sequencing would still have a good run for the next 2-3 years but seeing how commercial service providers are throwing caution to the wind and offering Whole genome sequencing at ever decreasing costs, I think many will soon revert to WGS instead. Exome sequencing kits will have a lot to catch up in terms of price and useful data if they are to match up with quickly plummeting WGS prices.
