Hi,<br><br>On July 22 a $35 (or 1500 INR) hand-held Linux computing device was
unveiled by Shri Kapil Sibal, the Union Minister for Human Resource
Development of India. The goal of the project is to lower the price to
around $20 in time and eventually reaching the amazing price of $10. 
<p>In a tablet form-factor and using an unspecified variant of Linux
(that some have said might be Android), the cost should remain low
while offering a wide range of functionality. The Sakshat descendant is
said to be capable of supporting video conferencing, viewing a wide
selection of video and image files, word processing, de/compressing
files, printing with CUPS, full Internet browsing with Javascript and
Flash, wireless communications, and remote device management.</p><br>The complete article is available on linux journal at the URL:<br><a href="http://www.linuxjournal.com/content/indias-35-tablet-everything-killer" target="_blank">http://www.linuxjournal.com/content/indias-35-tablet-everything-killer</a><br clear="all">
