I think this is over-priced because it's artificially limited. If it worked on both BMWs and FR-Ss and they kept adding more cars to support, even if I had to pay another $100 per model supported, I'd buy one in a second. Instead, it's the lock-in system. Not as crippled as ECUTek or Cobb, but still crippled.

For what it's worth, after buying one, I'd drive over to Shiv and have him tune the car. Heck, I emailed them 6 months ago, asking about their tuning.

Frankly, if they dropped these artificial limitations and sold it for 600 with support for both cars and no lock-down, they'd crush the living shit out of EcuTEK and BRZEdit, making more money in the end and building a happier community.
There's a few things you have to consider. They are offering a produt as an excellent value, that is limited in scope, yet provides an exceptional value, compared to other products out for our cars. I would focus more on what they are offering and you will see that their business model is extremely effective, and I would actually be turned off if they made it a "wal-mart" esque tuner.
