Is this the company that created/made the Cell-phone packet-data
thingamajig?
If they couldn't make it for below $1500, they don't *deserve* to
sell any of the dumb things!
A company either has to be a cost leader or sufficiently differentiated
such that cost is not an issue.
But before choosing the path of differentiation, it would of course
first be wise to figure out whether anybody really *wants* the item at
any price!
