Subject: This USB Stick Is Actually A Dual-Core Computer

FXI Technologies has unveiled a USB stick that turns any screen into an
Android-based computer, reports Laptop Mag.

Its internals aren't too bad either -- it packs a dual-core 1.2-GHz
Samsung Exynos ARM CPU, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, HDMI-out, and a microSD card
slot.


There is also this:

http://www.raspberrypi.org/

Runs stripped down versions of Linix Fedora, Debian, or ArchLinux. No
built in W-Fi but that can be added with a USB dongle. HDMI out. No
Bluetooth. B version (add $10) has 10/100 Ethernet built in.

All for $25......cheap.

The processor doen't have the raw horse power of the Cotton Candy
though. It is supposed to start shipping this month (Nov. 2011).
