Have you seen this? https://groups.google.com/d/msg/ioio-users/h9JpQNniB90/G33VaQiIp98J 2499 INR for an Indian variant of the IOIO-OTG. Comparing the IOIO to an Arduino is like comparing apples to oranges, they're different beasts. By all means, choose whatever suits your project needs and your budget, each solution will have different pros and cons per a given application.
