More on the Ultra Mobile Front
As expected, more devices are coming to market to compete with the Asus EeePC. Laptop Magazine now has a hands-on review of the 2go PC, which is one manufacturer’s version of the Intel Classmate 2 design. It’s fairly rugged to hold up to student use, sports a carry handle, has a 9-inch screen, 30 gigabyte hard drive, webcam, and the option of Linux or Windows XP. Reportedly the Linux version will be $399 and the Windows version $499 at list price.
I can’t wait to see what happens in this market niche over the next 12 months!
