apparently not to the company making them... since they are charging $20 for just five.

Video trading "cards." A colossal waste of time and resources. They obviously have no idea why people collect trading cards.

Electronics don't infalte in value over time. They don't last long either. I can possibly see this as a way for (hardware) hackers to get their hands on cheap and useful microchips, storage, and LCD screens for use in neat little DIY projects, but no one is going to pay millions of dollars 50 years from now for one of these things like they would have for a Babe Ruth card or something.
