What a stupid comment. 50% margin is common in many industries even those way outside of technology (and they have considerably less investment in R&D, Patents and marketing).
You clearly have never worked at any significant level in a "real" business.
So you listed the total of component costs. So what about:
1) research
2) software development
3) patents and legal
4) trademarking and legal
5) shipping (and markup for the retailer)
6) A building for all those workers to work in
7) benefits for said workers
8) return for shareholders
Seriously.
Optimus mini three delayed until August, bumped to $160 {Engadget}
May 17th 2006 2:46PM While I was excited about the prospects when I saw the full keyboard. The 8,000 hours is a bit of a disapointment.
This 3-button thing is a pointless waste of money. What does this mean? I can create three shortcuts to commonly used programs or tasks - provided I have this thing plugged in and on my desk next to my keyboard?
The keyboard is sweet. But this 3-button thing is a solution looking for a problem.
