Wouldn't it be cheaper to put a JesusPhone on a stick (well, an iPod Touch at least -- but I'm not sure what biblical term for the latter piece of kit is).

surely that should be a jesusphone on the new iStick.
The smartphone that doesn't have a phone function is finally out! I knew it would happen!
Joke aside, this is a good old last-era terminal, web 2.0-style. I tend to prefer keyboard over webcam-and-mic, but I might be a bit old-school. I can see that gadget finding its hypster target though. It makes much more sense than cramming a wannabe-entertainment center in a tiny device with no proper display or audio.

The stick for a JesusPhone should be an iCrucifix.

Windows Mobile? #

Windows Mobile? I'd rather be shot in the face.
Besides for the same price you could get TWO Chumbys. (http://store.chumby.com/) The Chumby certainly *looks* nicer.

ASBO on a stick; and I'm thinking - AHA! a new kind of clue stick.
What a disappointment.

Additionally, who else thinks "Albo" sounds like "Alpo" but for the Aibo? Anybody?

"It even has an infrared port, so you can zap over snaps taken on your phone."
Bluetooth would be more useful, my phone doesn't have an infrared port.

There were a brace of similar devices a few years ago and they never caught on e.g. the Siemens Simpad (also WindowsCE)

For that price you could buy one Albo, two chumbys or...

A laptop? In fact, you could buy 2 netbooks.
