BlackBerry Bold: $149 To Make, $491 to Troubleshoot
October 28, 2008 in BlackBerry, Handsets
Gizmodo has Maxwell Smarted the BlackBerry Bold, putting together 2 recent news announcements whose combined synergy leaves us saying WTF? Those two announcements? iSuppli has determined the cost to manufacture the BlackBerry Bold is probably about $169 while BestBuy just announced the non-contract price is $600.
That leaves us no choice but to assume that the pricing is EXTREMELY fair because you’re actually paying for the $491 in troubleshooting that caused delay after delay over the past decade.
