For the consummer electronics to success, the price is the key. wait a minute, there are exceptions, Apple don't believe this.
Charles : Yes price is the key hope apple do the same :D
the price is definitely going to make or break this device. people will pay extrodinary amounts of money for something which works and offers them what they want. if they over charge for something people can already get it will flop.
