I'm hopeful the price will remain the same.
Until I get the revised design completed, and get some quotes for assembly,
I can't say.

Another issue related to cost is that the EU, as well as banning various
materials, is also making manufacturers responsible for the disposal of
electronic waste under rules called WEEE.
The implementation of this directive seems to have been delayed, but when it
comes into force it means:
a) I'll have to put a label on the P3 case showing a little crossed-out
wheelie bin
b) I'll have to bear any costs in having every P3 sold recycled by a
licensed contractor when it reaches the end of its life

Obviously this directive is aimed squarely at disposable consumer electronic
goods like TVs, DVD players and FCPs, but the laws apply to all makers, so I
have to consider what the long term costs of this might be.
