If i had to take a guess i'd say very easily, most 'luxury' products have a massive markup. It probably costs them a fraction of what they cost to make, so even if there not huge sellers, at like 500-1000% markup. Carbon fiber while it isnt cheap isnt THAT expensive, as a example carbon fiber hoods for cars can be had for $500 - $1000 ish, for say 10x the ammount of material. so just being generous lets say it costs them $500 to build the whole thing....

Also wanted to comment its a shame to put the ferrari logo on that ugly brick. Ferrari's at the very least are sleek and sexy with lots of nice curves.... this thing could be passed off as a old nokia barphone if you put a cheap plastic case on it and scrapped the ferrari branding....

OMG, if I can trade in the iPhone 3GS with one of these I think I rather keep the iPhone although it seems that these phone have higher price tag what's the real point?
