Cyrus (Plus) is actually
two different boards (not taking into account
potential pin incompatibilities between P5020 and P5040 which could require some adaptations for the board in the X5000/40), so the development costs are likely unevenly distributed between Cyrus and Tabor. And, as ASiegel wrote, the $1.2M figure includes manufacturing costs.
There shouldn't be a complete redesign between the P5020 and P5040 boards. Just went back and checked the press release and it says the $1.2M is for 2 agreements. I assume one is Tabor and one is Cyrus Plus. It does indeed say design *and* manufacture. It does not say how many boards.
So what is the apples to apples comparison?
