Don't blame Wal Mart; blame the consumer who buys the cheap wares made in China, sold at Wal Mart. You can find just as many goods at Ikea, that are made in China.

Back to the story:

But dude, it's designed and made in China.

Consider in Singapore, a movie for 2 sets you back roughly $20 for tickets, $35 for transportation, $10 for snacks and if you're going for dinner, another $15.

2 hours.

I'd buy that to keep around as a cheap email machine. And if it breaks? Who cares, it's $99. Buy another one. My wife just bought a cheapskate calculator for her work that costs $35 and a plastic compass for $40. Really, $99 is nothing.]]>Apr 25th 2010 9:35AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/25/ekens-android-powered-mid-looks-mighty-nice-for-100/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/25/ekens-android-powered-mid-looks-mighty-nice-for-100/Apr 25th 2010 11:14AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/25/ekens-android-powered-mid-looks-mighty-nice-for-100/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/25/ekens-android-powered-mid-looks-mighty-nice-for-100/Apr 25th 2010 9:40AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/25/ekens-android-powered-mid-looks-mighty-nice-for-100/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/25/ekens-android-powered-mid-looks-mighty-nice-for-100/

That was my thought. When was the last time a device was "stuck with" a certain version of Android? If it's popular enough, someone will root it and give it 2.0 or 2.1.
