The idea of a netbook powered by an integrated solar panel has a lot of appeal. Like many mini-pcs the iUnika GYY is kinda slow (480MHz), weak (128 MB RAM), teensy (8 inch LCD) and operates on the less-than-mainstream Linux OS. It does weigh an attractive 1.5 pounds and it is solar-powered. I’d have more info if the iUnika site weren’t in Spanish…with some Asian text…anyone know what’s up with that?
The new solar netbook will be available in June for about €160
