Just because you "discussed" it doesn't make it so. If you really wanted to figure out the cost, then you need to break down an actual Kindle, look at each component down to the circuit board and individual chips. Then compare each component;s costs to its wholesale costs and give us the total.
This is done all the time by reputable research companies on all kinds of electronics. Most notably they did it with a PS3 and XBOX 360 to see how much each manufacturer was losing per sale of each console.
Until you guys actually did that, talking about it doesn't mean anything.
