Posted by Hemos on from the fun-things-to-play-with dept.

Justin Davidow writes "For a new twist on internet appliances, AMD is finally attempting to go mainstream with their mobile Geode processor, with the Personal Internet Communicator (PIC), a stand-alone device that allows users a striped down laptop/inflated PDA (without a screen included!) for internet surfing.
Expected retail price: $299USD." Be cool to play around with - I'd love to test it out.

    "a stand-alone device that allows users a striped down laptop/inflated PDA (without a screen included!) for internet surfing. "

    Striped down? Sounds fashionable, soft, and warm.

    Inflated? Sounds like my 'date' last night.

    I see a bright future for this product, do they ship in discreet brown paper packaging?
