<p style="margin-bottom: 0in;"><font size="2">It has just been announced that India
will produce Linux tablets/computers for students at a cost of $35
with the intention of reducing this cost to $20 and then down to $10.
It looks like they will be manufactured in Taiwan, firstly for their
educational structure, and then for commercial purposes. Wow! This is
amazing if they can deliver what they are promising. I can see other
hardware companies in the next twelve months trying to produce their
own products to emulate this, maybe in the sub $100 range, if not in
the sub $50 dollar range as the global market for this would be huge.</font></p>
