Unlike other USB stick computers that has wifi, USB, HDMI, microSD, this one also has internal bluetooth.

But what I can't figure out is the pricing of the Freescale i.MX6 chip.

This chip has been around for 2 years at very high prices. Its still at a higher price than the Hi-802 will retail at!!!

So what's going on?

Have the management decided there is no money to be made in low volume strategies any more and gone for lower price higher volume pricing model?

That quad core must be selling at $20 for the Hi-802 to be retailing at $89.
