Bluetooth devices use low-cost transceiver microchips, so the cost of manufacturing Bluetooth enabled devices is relatively low. Bluetooth chips are estimated to cost around $4 to manufacture. As a result, the prices of consumer Bluetooth devices are low.
Furthermore, since Bluetooth technology operates on an unlicensed radio spectrum, there is no charge for communicating between two Bluetooth devices. That's right, it's FREE.
The only cost the consumer receives is the cost of the actual product that is enabled with Bluetooth technology. However, any use of Bluetooth technology, data, or voice, using your cell phone is part of your regular cell phone bill. There is no account or service registry associated with using Bluetooth technology.
