I imagine Microsoft charges about the same and Brazilâ(TM)s brutal tax burden makes up the rest (the taxes are built into the price).

This box could be a great new product, but could be even bigger overseas. Think a place like, oh, Africa. Few people have clocks, and not many can tell time in the remote regions. An automatic dispensing system could potentially revolutionize health care. This, of course, depends on people actually caring about Africa, not just listening to Bono spout off about erasing debt.
