If people are willing to pay $500-$2000 the whole manufacturing equation changes.  This way you can do small runs and pay a lot of NRE and still be viable.

no he woundn't have got hundreds of orders, but didn't he get a few
hundred not 230ish? it helped, that was all I was saying. I'm noooo
expert but a bloody newbie. I could do with a less, err, umm,
