Any idea what one of these cost or are worth?

[Admin]

I would guestimate at bare minimum, $10k. More likely $20k or $30k. They'll probably be beta versions, with limited source code and documentation.

Wow, that's insane!
Talk about kicking off open source stuff!

Present that in front of my electronics class.. even a 360 degree turn would throw them into a spin.
