But probably the community only would like to know (not pretend) what should be the volume of production required to have brought the prices at a level suitable for all (and it is not asking a N900PlusPlus with the same specifications of Ubuntu Edge).

If the community sees that those with 40,000 (32M$ / 800$) pieces carry a certain type of phone and then here hear from someone (again said not by Joerg) that not even with hundreds of thousands or even millions of pieces would be possible to do the same with Neo900.
Then allows the community raises some doubts about certain statements.
