Have you heard about the new innovation in Netbook Technology, I am talking about Solar Powered Netbook by iUnika. It has been designed to be light and compact and usable without any power source bar the sun. Here is the specs : 400MHz processor, 128MB of RAM and a 64GB SSD,The software running on the netbook is a proprietary version of Linux and the screen on the iUnika measures 8 inch with a resolution of just 800 x 400 pixels.

It is named the GYY and will be available over to Europe in June at a cost of just $200.

The specs are kinda low, the o.s. is not user friendly… the only plus about the gadget is that it’s solar powered…

What you pay is what you get, and I don’t really think this one is good. I mean, it could be good, but it’s something new and needs to prove itself first for me before I’ll get my hands on it. But yeah, for those ordinary people who want to surf the net and not make anything special about it it should be pretty fine.
