http://shop.o2.co.uk/joggler seems okay, and for ££50,a bit too good. It can be hacked to run Android and Ubuntu, but it only has 1Gb internal memory and no batteries, so is not portable. any one know anything about it?

A quick Google seems that it hasn't been hacked properly yet... There's probably a good reason why it's now half price.

The "out of the box" version seems a bit limited from what I can tell. I'd save your £50 towards something with a web browser at least!

Yeah, :this: It's an oddball little thing without a clearly defined purpose. It's clearly not selling well and that isn't a coincidence.

It looks like Amstrad did their own version of an iPad! Yuck!

Exactly the kind of thing Tandy used to buy up in bulk and flog off to mug punters.

That was pretty much my thinking. The stand at the back isn't even adjustable!

I'm actually very tempted now, especially because of this. Would be nice to browse downstairs.
