Ultra-Mobile Personal Computing (UMPC)

China produced a pc less than 100usd. and India will produce about only 20usd. I was told.

So it has no markets ?One African said the BLACKBERRY STROM 8800 sells USD 700 in there , while in China it's USD 170 . Same like the iphone.

its not only you dont believe it, nor most of our chinese. But its black and white words, from certain india officials. we see the news at our local media. just search this cyber, you may find this news from india.

They hope all the poor in india could be use computer, to calculate, to surf on the internet, to study by remote education ...

Hoever their willing is good, I pray their implement. although I know even a 7" lcd will occupy a much.

Quite true. $10/ $20 Indian computer proved at the end to be no computer at all but just a hub with 2GB ram in it.

Still I do not laugh at it but admire the courage of people who tried to something better for the masses.

Where I can buy these below 100USD PC from China? What are the specs of those? Are they inclusive of display? Any Links? Will you be kind enough to help me to locate a supplier?

Yes , please reply to Amelia at : info@cnt.hk , and I will send details to you .

I use a 13-year-old ThinkPad 365XD. 24 MB RAM (it starts to be a bit tight), 1 GB hdd, 100 MHz P1 processor, OS/2 with StarOffice. I don't play games so it's sufficient for most of the tasks I have to do. My only problem is that it's a bit heavy and the battery lasts only for 2 hours. I could surely use the first configuration.

Aged man is not old man , I agree .

So as you said , such people may like this low and simple UMPC for simple usage , and so far as I know , people import these from China to Egypt , France and USA .

You may laugh at my brag. but if you search, you could find out that it is.

sereral years ago, usa developped a 150usd laptop computer, but fail on the market. Im not marketing specialist, I dont know why? two years ago, Britain developped a 100 ponds laptop, also delux, but still less people buy it. as well as developped by China, taiwan. (of cuae, omost of them are produced in China).

Many goverment in the world wish to develop a cheap pc for their poors for education and work etc. but a conflict exists among many factors. if there would be financial specialists or politicans out there to see it now, they will give a wonderful analysis. its out of my depth.

I am interested in more details on the UMPC. Please send it to John@Bearinglifeguard.com. Thank you.
