Thread: $35 Computer in India

This is just amazing.
India has unveiled the prototype of a $35 computer. This will be in production by 2011.

Here are some aspects of it
Costs $35. This is expected to be as low as $10 eventually.
It looks like an iPad
Touchscreen
LinuxOS based.

Yes I was reading about this tablet the other day, but lets see if they are able to get it to market, as I have heard many Indian companies encounter road blocks from the government while attempting to launch new products.

Hi,

$35 count me in. I pay more then that just to have one looked at.

After Tata Nano... it is interesting to see India proposed to launch one of the cheapest Tablet PC costing $35 i guess it will really make China to think and innovate less than $35

Anyway, I don't think it is possible to run the marketplace. :unsure::unsure::unsure::unsure::unsure::unsure::u nsure::unsure:

wow sounds amazing.you have any link with details info?

wow! its amazing that's really good

Wow $2000 tatanano $100 laptops now $35 ipad... heheh.. yea i would pay $35 just to touch it too heheh..

wow! is that even possible. Will India export it? I would love to buy one.

Will they even make it? I don't think we'll be seeing anything like it for a while. But for that price I'd buy one.

Erm, has it been launched yet? There is no update regarding the same yet. I tried to google it after reading this thread. Never heard that an iPad would cost 35 USD.. cheaper than China!

now with that price i can by 10 :P

It is great opportunity for a developing country like INDIA. This opportunity will be helpful to get a laptop for all the student of INDIA.
