50$ on a device that's 170$ (using the 3DS as example again) seems like a pretty big increase to me. Also I said ramped, not ranked -
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ramp_up - although it's possible you can't use that word there. I'm not a native English speaker, you know >_>
You are correct, mr.Grammar Nazi.
Thanks, I fixed my post.
As for your "$50 is a lot" argument, this $50 dollars makes you
save money rather than
lose it. Without said functionality, you'd have to
buy a phone, and the price of said phone would most likely be higher than $50.
You get 4G/GPS functionality for $50 - no more, no less. I can't argue with that. Future designs could also include the phone function, and we're on about the fututre, aren't we?
