We're not precisely sure, but Business Week has an about tech research firm iSupply and its Nano breakdown. Apparently, it costs $98.18 including labor to build a 2GB iPod Nano, which would give Apple about a 50% profit margin. Not bad, considering the would-be-fact that Apple will sell millions of these things.
