Desperate demand for the Elonex webbook

I’ll just paste a copy of this email from Alan Cocks on the Ubuntu UK mailing list. ========================================= Date: Tue, 26 Aug 2008 From: alan c To: British Ubuntu Talk Subject: [ubuntu-uk] Desperately seeking Ubuntu Webbook - with Bolt Cutters! In Bracknell, the Carphone Warehouse Webbook (Elonex) with preinstalled Ubuntu which is included in one of CPW’s deals is in such extraordinary demand that the recent display item in CPW Bracknell Princess Square shopping mall was stolen last week by desperate people using *bolt cutters*!

Ubuntu & webbook now available online at CPW

Good news! When we first announced the Elonex webbook, you could only get the Ubuntu version by visiting one of Carphone Warehouse’s bricks-and-mortar shops. Online they only had the old XP version listed. Today that has changed. Now you can order a webbook, with Ubuntu pre-installed without having to go out at all!

Say hello to the webbook

We don’t often talk directly about our business activities on this blog. But once in a while something happens that rightly deserves a mention. Our Open Source consulting business, The Open Learning Centre, has been very busy of late. We’ve been working with a household name hardware manufacturer and a very well known high-street retailer to deliver a really exciting and innovative product to the consumer market. Say hello to the webbook (click for a very big image).
