[QUOTE="Bowflex, post: 6951, member: 24"] I doubt six bucks would cover it. Half of the price goes to apple or Microsoft or Sony off the bat. Then all the operating an development costs is quite a bit. Lets say a dollar per unit sold. So they would need to then sell at least 28k units to cover the licenses (maybe more, the 55k could be lower than what is actually needed but the amount to make distribution feasible). That's a lot of units to have to sell before you start making a profit and without a guarantee of selling that amount, it would be a huge risk to put it out based on wishful thinking. So I agree that without a kick starter, the $6 price seems low and risky. [/QUOTE]
