Fair point -- but my overall point about how much users may have to pay to make these companies profitable stands. Maybe if prices stay depressed for years, but these companies are doing buildout at current prices, and they need to make returns on hardware they are buying now. I suppose they could bank on prices coming down in 2 to 3 years by a factor of 10, then current price ($200 per month) might be profitable (disregarding training, employees, power, etc).
