This has a nice ring to it, but I need to point out, or
better emphasize that the $500 figure is an estimate, and
I SHOULD have posted a range rather than a single number.
I tend to be an optimist so I posted a dollar figure near
the lower end of that range, and $500 is a good target.
But, since several important details related to a final
price have not been resolved at this time, I was a bit
hasty in making that figure public. So we will aim for
$500 but a better range figure would be $400 - $1000.
