In what has become a new shopping day benchmark,
"Cyber Monday" has as the hot ticket items those
$300 laptops everyone is snapping up, along with
the much higher priced $1,000 42" flat screen TV
models that hope to make half of the 2006 sales.
The "$100 Laptop" project of John Negroponte has
also announced the release of the first model in
this coming month, which could drive the pricing
down even further for 2007.
The $100 Laptop people called me this weekend to
tell my that I should receive one by Christmas--
let me know if you would like to receive email I
send reviewing it.
