Just like flash memory 5 years ago was super expensive: You would pay $40 for a 1 GB (class 1) SD card, and now you can get a (class 10) 32 GB SDXC card for $30. Besides, who knows what kind of subsidies solar power will have in the future...
If you do that you will never enter the market.

By the end of next year I am sure we will have 1TB SD cards for what we pay for 16GB now at the rate they are going. So now isn't the time either by your definition.
