Wii Dev Kit For $1700?

Rumors suggest that the Wii Development Kit will ring in to a tune "as low as $1,732", which would be sweet as hell (digg it). I would still love to see Nintendo develop a PC based DS SDK which uses the Wii as a deployment device (homegrown demo downloads if you will), but a cheap Wii Dev Kit's a good start. This would help expand the Wii's base greatly and if Nintendo can learn from Live Arcade in general, the Wii could be a great indie platform.
