Shipping beats small and / or light. jcarr writes "Seems Lindows can't ship
the portables it advertised. I ordered one from GearZoo the day it was
reported. The CEO of GearZoo sent the attached email about it. Sounds like
an opportunity for another manufacturer.

Dear Customer,

   Because of recent licensing issues with Lindows.com, our supplier is
unable to ship us any Lindows Mobile PC's. Thus, we are unable to fulfill
your order for this product. We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience
this may have caused you. We would, however, like to offer you the eNote
Travel Lite notebook for purchase. The Travel Lite has similar
specifications to the Lindows Mobile PC, and comes installed with Microsoft
Windows XP Home Edition for only $879. You can also purchase the eNote
without an operating system installed for only $789. The $10.00 discount I
emailed you earlier would also apply to this purchase as well.

   We are receiving a shipment of the Travel Lites later this week, and
will be shipping them out to customers next week. We will also have the
Travel Lite product information up on our Web site on Tuesday, March 4.
Please let us know if you would like to replace your Lindows Mobile PC
order with an eNote Travel Lite. If you decide to cancel your original
order, then please let us know and we will process your request immediately.

   Once again, our sincere apologies. We look forward to hearing back from
you regarding your order.'"

Has anyone seen these yet? I'm thinking of getting one (would be replacing lindows with gentoo, of course). The extreme lightweight for such an economical price would be great!
