Is it mentioned anywhere that the actual planned pricing (after the product releases) will be $99? The "$99 Android console!" headlines are great for publicity, but I wouldn't be surprised if the actual product (if it ever goes on sale) might be in the neighborhood of $250-$300 while the pledgers are the only ones that will actually get a $99 console "sold" as a loss for the sake of generating interest.
- learc83 14y agoThey've moved up to 80k consoles available at $99, so either they have serious funding to cover the loss or they are selling them at cost or with a bit of a profit. They are taking 30% from all games sold, so it is in their best interest to get as many consoles out there as possible. I would bet that the retail price is at or very near $99
