[QUOTE="RiDE, post: 1116840, member: 20712"] I agree with everything except the above statement. The calculated cost for the components in the 16gb wifi unit was under $260. **That was way back in APRIL, which is forever ago in technology pricing. Apple is making HUUUGE profit margins on the iPad (as well they should, and more power to them!!!) Even considering the R&D (which I would think would think would be very minimal given the fact that it's not too different from the iPod Touch and iPhone, they are still making a killing.. again.. as they should!!! In the end, Apple really doesn't change the pricing much on any of their products, the prices usually stay the same and the hardware quality increases with each speed bump/revision. [/QUOTE]
