i just got my numbers from the first article i linked:
The Dreamliner is more expensive than the Air Force One, which was purchased in 1990 at a cost of 250 million dollars (even adjusting for inflation, it is still less than the new Dreamliner.
note that the article also claims that mexico's dreamliner will be "the most expensive plane in the world", which doesn't play well with the fact that a saudi prince bought an A388 for private use. i trust wikipedia's numbers more.
