Its going to be hard to beat the price of the Raspbery π. Why not use it?

The biggest problem for the near future is availability. One vendor sent an email to say the R-Pi would be shipping soon! and by "soon!" it meant 2 months away.
At this point, if you want 100 of them, that's about 1% of their supply, and I'd expect they're swamped with orders for months to come. It's going to be hard to get very many of them.
My guess: It should work well for the price and specs as long as you can wait 6 or so months.

Hi all,
I'm researching a possible project that would embed a pd patch into a product. It would basically be a couple of knobs and a 16-bit audio output.
Anyone have any idea what's the cheapest way to do this that's production-scale? i.e. for hundreds of units, not hacked ipods, etc.. I'm looking for something on the order of $25, and ironically, Raspberry π is way, WAY overkill.
Thanks in advance for any clues :) --t3db0t
