hehee...
I know....
drool indeed...
and yeah...
bells and whistles...
hdmi...pocketchip..etc...'bout $50 to $100 (at most for 2 full units and accessories ...I think it was...)
which ain't too shabby...
and yeah you can grab a used n900 for the same as 2 of these chips fully loaded for sure...
n900 is what it is...a great device in it's own right and ability...
but natively running linux on the chip with hdmi and resistive touchscreen pocketchip ain't bad either.
Means I can get rid of half my laptops that are taking up space..

but I think these boys are on the right track with "cereal box computers"
( that being my most likely completely muddled and probably misquoted concept of remembering... someone in the dim past came up with ...saying that "One day the tech will become so cheap it'll be the "free toy surprise" in your box of kids cereal"....)
This splits the entire wasp nest of costly systems wide open ...
here is disruptive technology at it's finest.

Hm...
y'know...
It's only a matter of time ..
until China starts grinding out their version...
trying to undercut for market share...

Actually-actually...
It seems the chinese are indeed starting off "with" their hands in the mix already...of course...
since the development at page bottom says "Made in West Oakland & Shenzhen"
smart.
I am curious to dig deeper and see the degree of "east-west" collaboration here.
This kind of product will get cheaper ..but it may take a while to accomplish that...
hmm.
I think these guys are well ahead of the competitive curve for a long while to come.
