Interesting. To summarize, it looks like the $50 loss comes from an analyst comparing it to the iPad, whereas the $50 profit claim comes from a firm comparing it to the more-similar BlackBerry Playbook. The research firm that did a tear-down estimated it at about a $10 loss.

In other words, no-one really knows, but it looks like they're probably closer to breaking even than chugger claims. Chugger is taking the worst-case estimate here, and also the one that seems the most unsubstantiated.

Thanks for the link.

chugger == troll. A good one, but still a troll.
