Any UK sellers that you know of?
No...Reading more, I don't think they're making it yet - just looking for orders, and the price is going to vary according to how many you order too.
entry level is a 1GHz processor with 512MB of RAM.However it's an intersting concept - thanks to the proliferation of cameras, gadgets, etc. you can buy AA batteries almsot anywhere in the world now.
They're claiming the CPU uses 1.2 watts too - so now the effort must be put into the display chip & backlight as at those power levels, I imagine it's almost comparable with ARM for the cpu speed...
