Default Oyster pre-pay deposit

With the difference in price between Oyster and Paper tickets these

Not the only alternative scenario. In my case two £1.50 Oyster single
fares are the alternative to the £3.25 difference between a day return
Cambridge-King's Cross and a One Day Travelcard, both with Network
Card discounts. So it takes rather more journeys than I'm likely to make
this year to make the £3 up.

I'm assuming the Oyster discount will fall in 2007.
