Well, analysts say that by the end of current year it's probably around 1 USD = 2 EUR, thus the 1=1 should happen very soon and then slipping even furhter.
Quite depending on the ECB actions and what Germans&French decide.

It might happen that next Christmas shopping would be cheaper to be made in Europe than in the US.
