I haven't priced anything out yet.  My current project will have 
reasonably large sized board but will be using DIN 41612 style 
connectors (so I don't need edge fingers).  I haven't gone to different 
board vendors yet to see what pricing will be yet (still settling on 
board size and number of layers...right now it looks like it'll be 4 
layers).
