This question is meaningless without (a few) details about the product you are making.

  How so? This question isn't necessarily about whether there is room for me, personally, to make a hardware startup. Rather, I would like to hear people's opinions on whether they think hardware startups aren't a completely stupid idea at all compared to the much more prevalent web startups.

    IT hardware doesn't seem to have a good track record in recent history. Elevation threw a lot of money at Palm, Palm delivered an excellent OS and phone (and finally tablet), and yet they weren't able to achieve the market traction they desired. On the other hand, everyone I know with money outside of Silicon Valley seems to be investing in LED lighting companies.
