And 40,000 prims!
"Private Isles are full regions, not connected to the mainland, Sah'ra. Private Isles have far more functionality and management capabilities than a mainland region. Private Isles have no rating restrictions, allow estate managers, full flexibility of the estate tools. Private Isles come with a range of prims from 35,000 to 45,000, with the smallest allowable prim being .001 x .001 x .001 to the largest allowable of 128 x 128 x 128----
Currently, for beta pricing, all Private Isles are priced at $75/month, (currently no setup fee attached) Mainland pricing is at $60/month (with no set up fee.) All Beta residents who purchase land now, will have grandfathered pricing for one year after we come out of beta."
Rent prices do not go like they do in SL. So its not a place to make money. And becuase rent is so cheap everywhere and you have more people buying sims there - you would basically be making a CSD outpost that you would fund on your own or have some members (many of us are already avatars in IW) chip in and get a rental parcel just for the sake of CDS membership in IW.
