laptop is being made available to U.S. and Canadian consumers, but only if they
buy one to donate to a developing nation. At a cost of $399 for both computers,
you can get the 3.2-pound green-and-white laptop that's resistant to spills,
rain, dust, and drops, and includes its own operating system (called "Sugar"), a

year of complimentary access to T-Mobile HotSpot locations throughout the United

CMV9301 PMP doubles as 3MP / 5MP camera
We've seen the camera / PMP mishmash href="http://www.engadget.com/2007/11/01/ramos-v80-pmp-gets-wince-integrated-camera/">before,
and now that we're witnessing yet another iteration, we still aren't really
feelin' the concept. Nevertheless, those that are should certainly take a gander
at Shenzhen Carav Electronics' CMV9301, which features a three-inch 960 x 240
resolution display, support for a 1.8-inch hard drive, three- or five-megapixel
camera, 4x digital zoom, integrated flash, SD expansion slot, AV in / out,
line-in port, a built-in speaker and a trifecta of games for good measure.
Additionally, this thing claims to play nice with MP3, WMA, PCM, WAV, AVI, MOV,
MP4 and ASF file formats, and the rechargeable Li-ion should be good for around
ten hours of music / four hours of video playback. As these things always go,
there's no word on how much a single one will cost, but feel free to phone 'em
up if you can shake off that voice pleading with you to not order "at least
200."
