Comment How about the rest of the planet? (Score 1) 412

I found some of the comments above gaining the complete fail badge due to the assumption that it's going to be used by some iphone-toting hardcore geek who complains that it doesn't have GPS. FFS. The main page has a KID doing the presentation for the device. I wonder who it's aimed at. It's a $99 device that last for MONTHS on a single set of batteries and has an entire instance of wikipedia on it.
I sponsor a child in India and I've been wanting to get her something special for the last couple of years (missed on the OLPC). This would be perfect. I can send her this with a spare set of batteries and then send her updates and batteries every six months. Not a single negative so far (yes, she reads and writes English).
And if any moron cares to reply that children in India need food more than they need gadgets; note that this is Slashdot and most people here are aware of the true value of knowledge and what it can do for a person.
