The small and durable computers designed for student use has been in the news a lot recently, and Daewoo Lucoms now has an entry onto this area. The low cost computer, named "LUKID", is being launched for children in the Korea market.
The LUKID, based on Intel's Classmate PC, runs on the Windows XP operating system. The laptop features a 900 MHZ Celeron processor, nine inch display,and 512MB of RAM. Interesting to note, the machine uses a 30GB hard drive, unlike other computers in the category that use solid state memory for durability. Other features include WiFi, SD card slot and a USB port.
The Suggested price for the LUKID will be 549,000 KRW, or $528. At that price I am not sure if it qualifies as "Low Cost", but it certainly does look portable and durable.
