Know it all brings up a good point. I can see Toshiba taking a loss, but why would RCA do the same? RCA is most likely selling it for a profit-- unless Toshiba is subsidizing RCA, but then you have to ask yourself why would they do that?
I saw the third party who is guessing at the cost of the components is off. Toshiba probably negotiated a good deal with it suppliers. It's probably less costly than we believe.
