Original Elonex Ones for sale...

Morgan had some Elonex One+ machines for sale at £19.95 - but it looks like they have all sold out already:

Did anyone dash in and get one? Is this a good indication of the resale value of the Elonex machines?

Mine just arrived today from Morgan. I bought it out of curiosity - couldn't resist the price.

Yes, I bought one - ordered a grey one got a Barbie doll pink one. Fortunately I am comfortable with my masculinity. Ok for checking my emails and some very basic web browsing. An Android device would be much better for the job, but the Elonex is only £20 and has a keyboard.

The joystick mouse type of thing is oversensitive. I discovered the secret is to operate it with a series of gentle taps of the finger, instead of putting any pressure on it. I enjoy the solid-state nature of the machine - no hard drive or fans. A bit slow though and not the greatest version of Linux - but one must remember it's meant to be childproof. Like thos annoying lids on aspirin bottles.
