Hi,

you can find an interesting slideshow of the new Mobilis from Encore here:

And a few technical specs: http://www.comsattecnologia.com.br/index.php?pag=26

AFAIK, this is the hardware that won the recent bid in Brazil about
educational laptops.

Unfortunately doesn't seem as rugged as the XO nor have such a nice
screen, but may be one more interesting alternative platform for Sugar
to run in.

I think that the company that commercializes the laptop has been using
Mandriva as the OS. Aleksey Lim is working now in packaging Sugar for
that distro, so we'll have good chances of giving a good Sugar
experience on that platform.

Regards,

Tomeu
