Of course it's crap. What do you want for $35? There are other mini-boards out there at all kinds of price points. Try a hummingboard.

Should have said MSRP is $35. Going rate is $50 since it's new.

This is bad & stupid! If they instead used BCM23550 it would be wort playing with & compatible software vise (most part). Price would be just a little up or even same. There are Chinese phones with BCM23550 with HD displays with price tag under 100$...

You're slightly missed the entire reason behind the Pi!

No I didn't. It's sold as a cheap development board for projects and learning. What amazes me is how many people have bought one when you can get much more capable boards (like ODROID or HummingBoard) for a slightly higher price.

the point is that they are low priced not "slightly higher" so yes, you are still missing the point
