Retail price: The price tourists pay.
Bigger commercial orders will mean lower prices both because of volume and improved production models. Their business model how ever does not require building a one hundred million dollar plant to produce the screens.
I suspect the difference between screens today and a year down the road will not be as great as with most other products and she implied that the OLPC price will get much closer to $100.00 using the Pixel Qi.
