the "new device" should be paid!

Hi! i'm really appreciating the new handheld device for purchasing products directly from the shelves, but I was wondering: Isn't the device "Too" convenient and useful to be available from the start?
in a game where the remote price machine costs $80k, having such a device for free is a paradox. Wouldn't it make more sense to purchase them separately, such as the warehouse/supermarket spaces? thus making the game slightly less easier.

Maybe, the most useful info it provides it's the boxes you need to fill your store and you need the Mart OS upgrade for that... which is at the end of the skill tree so there's that.
