As I mentioned in the other thread, the ESP8266 is a Wifi chip that you can buy for $5/each on an order of 1, and can run custom code, so you'd only need one of those plus a case, battery and button. You could probably build a button for less than $10, without even ordering large quantities.
They've also found the killer app for the Internet of Things - having devices order their own refills. Coming soon to Whirlpool washers and (scarily) Brother printers.

The interesting part of the Dash isn't the backend (something that can handle API calls), but the hardware, and how cheap they can make it.

Don't forget your power regulation.
True.

A direct connection between my wallet and bank account? How so? If anything, that's what my debit card does :)
