    What would you pay for the cyberquad?

    Obviously we would all get one if it was ridiculously cheap, that's not what I'm asking. Also not asking what you think it will list for.. As we have no information to base that off of. Given no specs and just going off your gut of what would get you to pull the trigger or not, what's that...
