Okay, it's using the now-annoying "ee" thing, but it's approximately
the same form factor as an MP2k, and half the weight.

     * CPU: ARM926, 400MHz
     * Screen 7”W, 800x480 w/TP
     * Memory: SO-DIMM DDR 128MB
     * Storage NAND flash 128MB
     * Video codec, VGA@30fps
     * WiFi and Blue Tooth support
     * Battery 10.8Whr
     * Adapter: 5V, 2.5A
     * Dimensions 18.8x11.3x1.29 cm
     * Weight: 343g
     * OS: Win CE6.0
     * Swivel Camera 0.3/1.3M

Now, if it can be convinced to boot another OS, a slashed-to-the-bone
linux kernel and einstein might make a compelling machine for me, with
my 2100's touch screen now being close to unusable. Cost is liable to
be low, too, I can't see it being competitive with the various other
*ees at much more than $150 with that spec.
