Pierre, >....Finally, in reference to car kit pricing its hard to argue with the reps statement that "price is not an impediment to those who need it." I think this puts in a nut shell what I have long felt was the problem with current marketing approach. How about all those who simply "want" it (as opposed to "need" it), and would probably consume a lot more minutes if they had it? I'll bet price is an impediment to that sector. The approach in this area, as in roll out in general, seems to be to gouge those few with great need, and discourage all those who simply "want" but don't "need." ....< Perfect summary. As stated more eloquently by others, definition of need changes with respect to price. Does anybody know what the markup is for the G* car kit? Can't help but wonder just how much does it cost to manufacture something consisting of an antenna, cable, plastic cradle, and probably 1 or 2 printed circuit boards with associated electronics, speakers and microphone.
