When video cassette recorders came out they cost hundreds of dollars which was very expensive 40 years ago. The first generation of devices were only bought by enthusiasts and those with significant disposable income. It took a few years and iterations of technology and manufacturing to get them down to a price where the market could really take off. Not saying that this headset is exactly like a first gen VCR but it could follow a similar price/acceptance curve.
