But at least it shows that, if someone builds something that consumers
will want, before the consumers know what it is, the consumers will
still want it.
In case of low-cost PAV, it is already known that the consumers will
want it.


No, that is not known, and to become a commondity the price has to get
down to the level of a microwave oven, which is never going to happen.


It would be hard, indeed, to bring cost of PAV too few hundred US
dollars.

But many people would be willing to pay the same for a PAV as they
would for their automobile.
