Such as? I've been thinking of producing a lower cost alternative, but realize that the cost of a
GENUINE CM119 alone is more than you pay for a whole FOB from your favorite Chinese supplier. You
then add the cost of an enclosure and board to the parts count, things add up pretty quickly.

My USB-RIM device went several steps further down the "additional features" path. It seems there are
few people that want to pay for additional features or better engineering. <shrug>
