Did a bit of sniffing, engadget turned up

Considering we're the nation that gave people the jet engine, thats just a shame. Its not really exiting, and the Eee looks better, and price point wise , when you factor in VAT on the eee. What i'm getting at is do you really need something this cheap, with such reduced functionaility?
I know its designed to be cheap and everything, but the keyboard looks like its designed to be painful to type on.
As for a tablet without a touch screen.... Oh dear.
Also that picture, its clearly running XP?
throw new ArgumentException (String, String, Exception)
Oh dear, that screen is a bit thick tablet or not.
I'm not seeing the use for it being a tablet even if it did have a touch screen. I know people who work in IT at schools and I know what they would do to something like that within 5 minutes.. vultures.
Rubbery keyboard is actually a good idea however horrible it is to use.. the kids like to pull the keys off and spill things afterall.
Maybe it will appeal to schools, maybe not but I certainly wouldn't consider one for personal use. The reason I think the Eee is so fantastic is it looks a lot further than the original £100 laptop idea for kids in schools...for £200

It's got the specs of a PDA. Err, sweet. Working in education even I can't see a point for this. I thought the Eee PC was limiting in education... this is just without purpose.
Regarding the XP comment, that's clearly a mock-up. Looking at the IE toolbar and the task bar I'd guess it's just a rotated screenshot at 1280x800 or something that's been plastered onto the photo. Usefully it's also without a start button... :|
Thought Elonex had died too? No?
now im not usually one to form an opinion on a product by its looks but this one looks like something from the 80's
more loverly cheap ultra portables the bettwer
The only think I would need a laptop for is web browsing, and my phone can do that fine
Dont tell me it has a black and white screen.....
