First three cheers to LTE for making these available. It reminds me when Motorola made a developers kit for the then new 68HC11 MCU available for $68.11. I know of one design win they got that more then made of their marketing costs. Another that hit me is with inflation the LTE Lite is not

Pete, that is not inflation, that is supply and demand. The Trimble Mini-T was priced at $945 on Trimble's standard price list for 1 to 9 pieces, and the Thunderbolt was likely twice that much when sold new, so you have to compare that to the LTE-Lite pricing. The Thunderbolt units

Hi NS, considering that they will be priced in quantity at 1/10th to 1/20th of what the Thunderbolt costs new I would say very well. In fact our module supports WAAS/EGNOS/MSAS and QZSS, and up to 65 GPS channels which the Thunderbolt does not support at all, so how do you compare that?
