Ignoring the absolutely horrible name, this will be dead on arrival because of the price alone. Even for a new or small company that doesn't have the industry clout or initial unit production numbers necessary for minimal component pricing, there's just no way to justify a $200 price tag for what appears to be less than $15 worth of actual hardware. Especially when the only significant difference from competing hardware (priced nearly an order of magnitude lower) is wi-fi and what will amount to an unnoticeable performance increase.

Yes, controlling via wi-fi is a nice potential feature, but they would really need to have the appropriate third party software interfaces (Android, iOS, and browser) ready by the ship date. And even then, it is unfortunately not a $165 feature.

If by competing device you mean the Raspberry Pi, I wouldn't consider their hardware to be in the same market. That's like saying the HTC G1 is competing with the Samsung Galaxy Nexus. They're generations apart. A 1.2Ghz dual-core processor doesn't come cheap, nor does the 1GB of RAM on top of that.

Your statement that it's only $15 worth of hardware makes me question the validity of everything you say.

It looks like they've gotten access to Samsung's Exynos 4412, which is definitely not a sub-$20 part.
