Review : Introduction to Aware A-Book AW-300
Bluetooth 3 Dec 2007

Introduction

Last month when I was in Taipei, I came across this 7" toy like PC while shopping for the EeePC. While this isn't a eeepc, it is a  useable PC for the school children for surfing the net, emailing, listen to mp3.

This "PC" runs on a X86 300MHz processor. It comes with 128MB DDR2 SDRAM, 4MB Flash ROM. For storage, there is 1GB NAND FLASH. You can of course mount additional FLASH disk or USB HDD for more external storage space. It uses a 3 cell 2200mAH/cell battery and has a dimension of 200 x 147 x 33mm.

This small little PC comes with a 7" LCD screen displaying up to 800x480. In terms of connectivity, it has 6 USB ports, 10/100 Ethernet port, USB Wifi 802.11 b/g (optional) and USB bluetooth (optional).

The Operating system on this machine is a proprietary LINOS 2.4.25. Preinstall software include a web browser (Samarao), email client that looks like outlook express, a picture viewer, editor, dictionary calculator, system manager, package manager and media centre. It also include some games like Xblock out, Xbomb, Xdigger, Xgalga, Xscanvenger etc. For education, it comes with VNC, Tux typing.

The package comes with a hand carry bag which fits the charger, USB wifi, PC and manual.
