MSP430G2553 PDIP = $1.00 (1k qty per ti.com)
FTDI cable = $1.00?
PCB = 50 cents, it's small 2-sided through-hole board with big traces,
i.e. cheap
2 leds @ $.10 each
A few other parts, hmm not sure. $0.50?
Especially if you read $4 as 4 euros (original meaning of 4e4th) there
is easily enough margin to make this doable, at least on a non-profit
basis.
I agree I'm not sure of the point of this compared to the Launchpad
board, if a PCB is involved.
I still like the idea of a solderless kit. Just a few chips, wires, and
other parts in a bag, with instructions about where to plug everything
("connect 3 inch yellow wire from slot 23A to slot 17B") into a
solderless breadboard (sold separately). That immediately makes the
hardware more hackable: just rewire stuff as you feel like it. No
add-on boards, just plug more stuff into the same breadboard. The
breadboards run $5-10 depending on size but you can use them for all
sorts of things.
This also makes it possible to use the 40 pin processor with 32k of
program memory, if they put the DIP version in production. With luck
they'll also do that for the closely related part with 56k of flash and
4k of ram, which should be able to run a pretty nice system. I don't
know if that's enough to run a traditional standalone Forth with a block
editor though.
At the other end of the size scale from the 40dip is this:
