Certainly this can not be it. The very first Google Android netbook really should definitely be a lot more monumental than this $100-$200 device from SkyTone. Guangzhou,
Genuine Windows 7, China-based Skytone is renowned for producing Skype headsets and ultra lower expense children's pcs. But, as of today, they've got on their internet site, the Alpha-680 Google Android netbook. In Pink,
Genuine Microsoft Office 2007, Yellow, Red, Black and White.
While this unit will probably be incredibly cheap, it does have some redeeming attributes. It appears to possess a flip all around touch display plus a gaming pad built in. And this issue does have Wifi, Ethernet, 3G,
Microsoft Office Standard, USB Ports and an SD card slot in a $100-ish bundle.
The specs overall are anemic, like you'd expect to get a low-cost Netbook.
This is just a glorified cellphone...without having the glory. Its build quality also seems to be extremely very low finish. Nonetheless, with Skytone's Skype heritage, no less than it'll be capable of purpose being a Skype phone.
I'd like to see a much better processor,

And as long as this thing runs a browser about WiFi, it really is tough to complain about a $100 unit. Worst situation scenario, it is possible to give it to a youngster to play with.
SkyTone just isn't the sole Android Netbook game in town both, they're just first to announce. A good amount of other individuals are planned, particularly Pegatron's Freescale based mostly netbook.
