300EUR is hardly reachable. We'll most likely end with a price between 600EUR and 800EUR. For 300 we need to build and sell 100k devices. Please keep in mind that iirc the N900 initially also was 599EUR and Nokia for sure built more than 200 devices and has better stand to negotiate prices with chip manufs anyway. Actually I'm afraid that Nikolaus calculates too low and in the end will have a loss on the whole enterprise and thus discontinue the whole thing.
