And yes, they are girly, and if I was a male chinese student (well, I'm still male :D) I would definitely choose the purple one, because the other two would look stupid, and with the purple I could make it that way, I don't mind girlyness :)]]>Apr 25th 2009 3:33PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/10/14/sinomanic-godson-based-student-laptop/http://www.engadget.com/2006/10/14/sinomanic-godson-based-student-laptop/Oct 14th 2006 5:51AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/10/14/sinomanic-godson-based-student-laptop/http://www.engadget.com/2006/10/14/sinomanic-godson-based-student-laptop/Oct 14th 2006 6:09AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/10/14/sinomanic-godson-based-student-laptop/http://www.engadget.com/2006/10/14/sinomanic-godson-based-student-laptop/Oct 14th 2006 6:18AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/10/14/sinomanic-godson-based-student-laptop/http://www.engadget.com/2006/10/14/sinomanic-godson-based-student-laptop/Oct 14th 2006 6:49AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/10/14/sinomanic-godson-based-student-laptop/http://www.engadget.com/2006/10/14/sinomanic-godson-based-student-laptop/Oct 14th 2006 8:22AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/10/14/sinomanic-godson-based-student-laptop/http://www.engadget.com/2006/10/14/sinomanic-godson-based-student-laptop/ Not bad. Makes me nostalgic for the old days of the TI-85. It was a badge of honor/nerd-dom to be in a math class that required a graphing calculator.

But yeah, if it plays at least Mpeg1 at a reasonable level of quality and has a PCCard slot I'd hit it for $250...

I'd prefer if it were a little smaller though...say Vaio Picturebook size...

wish apple would build something like this - a writer's notebook, small and minimal, with a bit of web surfing and emailing thrown in.]]>Oct 14th 2006 10:53AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/10/14/sinomanic-godson-based-student-laptop/http://www.engadget.com/2006/10/14/sinomanic-godson-based-student-laptop/http://cn.engadget.com/images/2006/10/sinomanic.jpg]]>Oct 14th 2006 11:47AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/10/14/sinomanic-godson-based-student-laptop/http://www.engadget.com/2006/10/14/sinomanic-godson-based-student-laptop/Oct 14th 2006 11:54AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/10/14/sinomanic-godson-based-student-laptop/http://www.engadget.com/2006/10/14/sinomanic-godson-based-student-laptop/Oct 14th 2006 2:52PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/10/14/sinomanic-godson-based-student-laptop/http://www.engadget.com/2006/10/14/sinomanic-godson-based-student-laptop/Oct 14th 2006 3:00PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/10/14/sinomanic-godson-based-student-laptop/http://www.engadget.com/2006/10/14/sinomanic-godson-based-student-laptop/Oct 14th 2006 4:24PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/10/14/sinomanic-godson-based-student-laptop/http://www.engadget.com/2006/10/14/sinomanic-godson-based-student-laptop/Oct 14th 2006 7:59PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/10/14/sinomanic-godson-based-student-laptop/http://www.engadget.com/2006/10/14/sinomanic-godson-based-student-laptop/
If I can get one of these things running Linux then I would be willing to pay the $250 for it, if only because the 2B1 (olpc) isn't for commercial consumption.]]>Oct 16th 2006 10:35AM
