More $100 laptop news

Nicholas Negroponte at MIT's Media Lab announced the specs of the upcoming $100 PC aimed at developing countries:
500Mhz processor, 12" colour display (which can switch to a sunlight-friendly e-book monochrome display), 1Gb memory (serving as both RAM and storage I'm guessing), Wi-fi (with mesh network support), Linux and specially developed non-bloat software. Good luck Nicholas - looking forward to the prototype due on November 15th. Due to ship end of 2006.
