At $1 per Watt, the iTunes of Solar Energy Has Arrived

Story is over a year old. The PV panels are not available to Americans.

This price is probably the usual manufacturer price but hidden to the
American consumer in order for usual consumer gouging to occur without
backlash.

Not only an old story, but the $1 a watt claim has not been able to be
verified as the "customer" to whom the panels were shipped will not
reveal the sale price.
All Nanosolar have claimed is that they can make solar panels for $1 a
watt.
They have not claimed they will sell panels for $1 a watt.

The link referes to a comment made in a gossip forum. The actual news
release was December 2007 and not available to any Americans.

Try reading the link and then report where the story is found.

Here is the original announcement from Decmber 18, ***2007***

Yes I read the original announcement.
One piece of information that is totally lacking in this debate
is what is the production cost ,(not the sale price), of conventional
mono and poly solar panels.
This has to be one of the most secret numbers in the world.
It could easily be $1 a watt, but the sale prices
are purely based on supply / demand.
