Specs include: a 400 MHz processor, 256 GB RAM, 2 GB flash memory, 7-inch screen (800 x 480), USB 1.1 and 2.0 ports, SD card support, and it runs either Linux or Windows CE operating systems (it should also get about 4 hours of use on the Lithium battery). Yeah, don't expect much for your $99—as the product page notes, it's "small, slow, and sufficient." Africa is available now at the Cherrypal open store.
