The base module that the spark fun device uses is only $35.00

and much lower in quantity. However, its a 3.3v device and requires
SMD soldering skills. The extra dollars to spark fun are for a 5v
interface and having already soldered to a board that is easier for
hobbiests to work with.

However, looking at the bottom picture of the device, I'm not sure
its all that much lower in profile. There are jumpers and connector
on the bottom of the board. The spark fun module is smooth on the
bottom, no components.
