Anything outlandish should be questioned until proven true, not the other way around. Doesn't matter if it is MIT making the claim or IIT.

If you look at the links showing it, $35 is the component cost and its a little hazy on whether they actually included all the parts needed (like a case?). That number doesn't include manufacturing, distribution, warranty, etc.

Add those in and you are probably looking at around $50. Still, an interesting idea.
