The upcoming EMTEC gdium EM-PC is a low cost subnotebook designed for students. EMTEC has operations in 24 countries, but the best product description I could find was on the EMTEC Australia web site, which states that the gdium EM=PC will be available in Australia in July.
Here are some of the machine’s specs:
- Flash based storage (no hard drive)
- Features a “removeable GKey, which houses the security/authentication”
- Linux OS
- Webcam
- 8.9 inch, 1024 x 600 pixel display (although Blogeee reports there may also be a 10 inch model)
- Weight: 1.1kg
- Connectivity: 802.11b/g
- Price: $449 Australian, or about $430 US
