All about Gadgets

I’m holding out hope that one day every company that wants to launch an Eee PC-killer decides that the best way to compete is to offer a higher resolution screen. But for now we continue to see company after company announce new mini-laptops with 800 x 480 pixel displays. The latest company to join the fray is Germany’s Fukato, which will soon launch the Datacask Jupiter, which seems to offer some decent specs for the relatively low price of 279 Euros or about $440:

• 8-inch, 800 x 480 pixel display
• 500MHz AMD Geode LX processor
• 20GB 1.8 inch hard drive
• 512MB RAM
• Linux operating system
• 3 hour battery
• 3 year warranty

Fukato’s Datacask Jupitor should be available in May.
