Well times, they are a'changing, and boy do wee wish wee lived in Canada right now. Up north, RBC Royal Bank is offering a free ASUS Eee PC when you switch to their checking account service. That's right, you get an actual computer after completing the move (and dealing with a lot of red tape). Sure, it's only the 7-inch, 2GB version, but it still runs Xandros way better than this solar calculator wee got from our bank.

Wonder when they'll start giving away macbooks or XPS or like...

How much are those computers???

i guess around $300

i think that it can never substitute a laptop, but is a great device on its own... revolutionary!

I read up on these, and its not really that good, but free for signing up for a bank account, then it is good
