My guess would be that a minimum run would need to be upwards of 100k units. I
seem to recall someone saying that the ISD had an initial run of 10k units, but
I think that TLC was being very cautious due to the uncertainty of the high
offering price. A more typically priced set would need a larger base run to
cover all the overhead involved in getting it out the door.
