Not speaking to the viability of GOS’s opinion of Motorola’s pricing on this having any effect or their options for influencing that price, but I do think you are giving the GOS devs far more credit than I have ever seen them earn when it comes to business savvy.
As much as I support the projects mission and their willingness to call a spade a spade, the people that run the project would get eaten alive in an actual board room discussing things like gross revenue and per component margins. Which is where these kinds of decisions are made.
