Skytone's Android-powered netbook to cost around $250

Written on Sunday, April 26, 2009 by @nadiarizqi


Guangzhou Skytone Transmission Technologies Company, which we will absolutely never call by its full name again, has just dropped a juicy nugget about its forthcoming netbook. If you'll recall, we recently caught wind of the ARM-based, Android-powered rig (the Alpha 680), which is expected to be a stripped down portable useful for web surfing and light duty Office use. Nixon Wu, Skytone's co-founder, recently confessed that it's aiming to sell the machine for around $250, and if all goes well, it should have prototypes ready by June and final products ready for consumption a month or two after that.

Call us crazy (or just greedy, really), but we were totally hoping for this to ring up at $199 or less.
