Well flash is probably cheap, but they are sticking a hell of a lot of flash on those devices.

This is true. Even so, I imagine the overhead would be lower for a "DIY" device.

And if a DIY device could be made to work reasonably well, then some company would be sure to start using the software in a commercial device, which would have a price advantage on the market. Then just make sure that some of the critical components are GPLv3, and you have a load of devices that will let you update their firmware for further experiments.
