The parts (LCD screen etc) are probably worth more than this. You'll need to get a USB Ethernet adapter so you can use broadband." Tiger Direct seems to have a mixed reputation for service, but at under a hundred dollars, this looks pretty tempting even if only used as a digital photo frame, or an adjunct mail terminal.

Uggg...Passport by RedWolves2 · 2001-12-09 05:06 · Score: 5, Funny

It uses passport and hotmail as the e-mail account!?!

Great for $99 I am going to learn things like where to find cheap viagra and how to increase my bust size as well as find Hot Horny 18 year olds.

Sounds like a great present to give to someone.
