Yet another idea: how about pre-programming the bootloader into the
AVR, before soldering it into the PCB?  It needs a bit of extra
equipment, but that should pay out at that amount of devices.  It also
saves you from having any equipment to ISP-program the final PCB.

Never trust an operating system you don't have sources for. ;-)
