This is what science is supposed to be doing, making things better and cheaper.

hand crank? I was hoping for more of a sexy apple $100 iBook.

Hey don't knock that crank! You don't have to recharge the battery and only 30 seconds of cranking gives you hours of battery life. C Crane has hand crank radios and flashlights and stuff. Should really piss off the electric companies.

What, no pictures?! Fucking vaporware, like the uber godlike video card from Bitboys Oy.

As long as it brings more people online with CC's then its all good :)

More signups for all of us.

Saw this in the news earlier today, you have to crank it every 10 minutes or so. :stoned

My sentiments exactly but the caveat is that anyone who would buy a $100 laptop might not have the loot to buy a membership.

One day computers should be as cheap as cell phones and regular wall or wireless phones.
