$50,000 sounds incredibly low to get this to market. Surely setting up manufacturing and shipping and sourcing the components is going to eat up more than that?

$50,000 sounds incredibly low to get this to market. Surely setting up manufacturing and shipping and sourcing the components is going to eat up more than that? They've already promised nearly all their backers at least one of these things, so it's not like they will get in more revenue from sales until after all of those are made and shipped.
- loceng 13y agoOnly reason I think it could be possible is that it's in India. $50,000 surely goes a long way there?
- desigooner 13y agoNot as much as you think it does; especially in cities such as Bombay and Bangalore.
- ssivark 13y agoVery roughly, by comparing cost of living it'll be worth about ~$200,000 in India. But keep in mind that the cost of manpower in India is much lower than the US.
