“Built on the Intel® Atom™ processor, the PeeWee Pivot PC is an Intel-powered Classmate PC which features durable, drop and spill resistant construction with a sturdy plastic case and removable carrying handle to withstand demanding everyday use at school, in the house, on the job or when traveling.” – PeeWee PC site (via jkOnTheRun).
The TeleRead take: Priced at $599—no, this isn’t an econo machine—the “tablet laptop” uses the Windows XP operating system. So it presumably can run Adobe, eReader and Mobipocket software, as well as other common e-reading apps. Before you go with Adobe Reader, however, read about the security issues—I’d welcome comment from Adobe.
