1997 Camry V6 idle issue

I have an odd problem that I had before in a previous Camry, but never looked into it. When im driving down the road and i let go of the gas, the rpm drops down to about 650-700 and then comes back up to where its supposed to be (lets say 1200 while coasting at 40mph). The car runs nice, runs smooth and everything but when this happens (every time I let go of the gas) it makes the car slow down a little. The idle returns to normal right away, only dipping down to 650 for about 1 second. Any ideas? I was thinking maybe a throttle adjustment or a vacuum leak, but im not sure. Any suggestions would be awesome! The car has about 150K on it.

Could be the throttle position sensor (TPS)...
