Well, the point is to use this in small planes that normally can't have such "black boxes" installed. It would be an important safety measure and even allow a pilot to manage the plane better. Examine fuel use. Diagnose malfunctions. Refine procedures.

Which is why it is cheaper. I agree with spec'ing somethings to certain tolerances, but the aerospace industry has gotten out of hand. In the automotive world, there is a company that uses the Gameboy Advance as a fuel tuning/boost management computer. http://www.turboxs.com/more_info.php?ID=192

Not tested for automotive use, but if my kids can't break it, I think it will be ok.
