    How do they make a Profit?

    Something tells me the seller would not want to be bothered with only 2000 units. But if you are Wallmart or Amazon and are looking for 500,000 units each quarter, the price gets a lot closer to $0.01.

    Why are some techs so opposed to a new way of doing thing?
