1) I'm not happy with the price either, but at the $499 they are the lowest margin item we build. There's a lot of fairly expensive materials in there.
B) By the time you cable up a system with decent cables, you'll have more in cable then the stands. I'd say that's reasonable appropriate.
iii) If the concept takes off and we can build stands in larger quantities we'll be able to eek down the price.
IV) Too much? Don't buy it. Get wall cubes ... or a stack of books. At this point the product (the whole system) is really targeted at folks with serious cash. Over time, it'll be more affordable.
