I don't know how you thought of that but it's just genius!

I like his quote:

Valentine: When you get a virus, you get a fever. That's the human body raising its core temperature to kill the virus. Planet Earth works the same way: Global warming is the fever, mankind is the virus. We're making our planet sick. A cull is our only hope. If we don't reduce our population ourselves, there's only one of two ways this can go: The host kills the virus, or the virus kills the host. Either way...

Do you think that such devices can be a good alternative to Raspberries or Arduinos ?

the raspberry pi is maybe cheap but you need to buy a lot stuff to be able to use it. every thing is sold separately. you end normaly with 60$ at least

here you get for 4$ LCD, WIFI, BLUETOOTH, MICROPHONE, SPEAKERS, ANDROID OS, CAMERA ...
you can do lots of stuff with it. i would buy 10 of those and build great stuff with it. but i dont know where i could get them and the question is how much
would it cost incl. shipping.

Thats exactly what I was thinking of

A while a go I read about similar very cheap smart phone but I think Indian Government was paying to make it affordable to citizens so I do not know if it is possible for people outside India to get such prices .

We can only hope that it has some effect on other brand prices and that they feel obligated to drop their price aswell.

LOL ...

Could do with one of them right now .. to ease the pressure after bricking daughters iPhone earlier today . And I just hate iTunes with a vengeance!

I was hoping for a real price action for that new iPhone. but it's still ridiculous expensive for what it is.

and almost €100 euro more expensive than what they first told.
