Elonex takes orders for £99 laptop
7in laptop has detachable keyboard and runs Linux
Clive Akass,
Personal Computer World 03 Mar 2008
Elonex is
taking
pre-orders, on a £10 deposit, for the £99 laptop it is targeting at schools
but details of the device remain obscure.
The
Elonex
One is a curious design, looking at first sight like a standard laptop. But
closer inspection shows that all the workings (and weight) are in the lid, which
also houses the 7in 800x480-resolution screen.
The keyboard is detachable and it seems from the specification that the rear
can be used for touch input.
It weighs 0.95kg, measures 22x15x3cm, and uses what is described as an LNX
Core 8
mobile
processor clocking 300MHz, plus and 128MB Ram and 1GB of flash memory with
options of between 1GB and 16GB removable memory.
Expansion is also available via two
USB
2.0 port. The device runs the Linos 2.6.21 version of Linux and comes with "
education-oriented" software.
There are two built-in speakers and 3.5mm audio in and
headphone
sockets. Elonex claims a four-hour battery life from the three-cell battery.
