You might need to correct your article, the pdf specs says the screen is 1024 x 600.

This sounds like an interesting netbook, but seems to be several things missing from that $200 price.

Pro:
+ fanless, CPU doesn't need active cooling
+ has an x86 compatible CPU so it can run Windows

Cons:
- 1Ghz Xcore86 CPU, I don't know the benchmarks on this CPU, but it sounds even weaker than VIA 1GHz CPUs
- HD not included (option)
- Rechargeable batteries not included (option)
- WiFi not included (option)
- Looks like the CPU and RAM are on one module so you can't just upgrade the RAM itself

Buy the time you add in those options, it seems this netbook would be over $300. It appears to be a decent looking netbook, but I wonder what the real cost of a usable version would be.

Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.

"I am looking for a device that will stream sound from one source to several recipients. For example, I want to stream sound from my TV or stereo to my phone or MP3 player that has radio and Bluetooth capabilities. I have looked into radio transmitters and they seem like a decent choice, but I can't find one that uses external power (USB or from the plug) and I would want one with a transmit range of around 50 meters. Thanks!"
