These are not just a normal laptop, they have some really amazing features in relation to power saving (the screen can stay on with the GPU off, the CPU sleeps during keypresses, etc). I think the more UMPCs on the market, the better. People do want small, light laptops for casual email/surfing/IM purposes. This one also has the "human factor" of helping a person less advantaged than yourself. I think they look really trendy, too! (ps: it's spelt "cynical") This is awesome!
