While I haven¹t seen any specifics, just looking at the device pictured on the I-Mature website http://i-mature.net/content.php?id=17&tno=7 <http://i-mature.net/content.php?id=17&tno=7> it¹s hard to see how it could be retailed for just $25. A more serious problem is getting home users to buy and install biometric devices. I¹m skeptical that that the consumer market will purchase biometrics in enough numbers for a product like this to be successful.
