In case you don't take the time to watch the video (I had to click stop after 15 seconds - maybe I could go longer if I turned down the speaker volume) you definitely should read the funny comments on that page.
Many of the anonymous pundits think $98 is way overpriced for this little toy (and the annoying voice on the video actually says it costs $120). Seriously, I'm not sure what I would do these days with a 400mhz processor and 1Gb of flash. I guess it does have ethernet so you could stand it up as an ultra low powered mail proxy or something. But browsing or doing anything graphical at all on this thing would be very painful.
