Testing the water for new ARM netbooks running RISC OS

Trevor Johnson is asking for opinions on pricing of a RISC OS version of the Always Innovating Touch Book, which has very similar hardware to the Beagle Board, and would be largely supported by Jeffery Lee's current RISC OS 5 work on the Beagle Board.

The Touch Book is currently priced at US $399, but considering shipping, repackaging, the process of installing RISC OS and low volumes, he has suggested a price of GBP 450 (about US $730).

Bearing in mind that AI has referred to RISC OS on its main wiki page since 2 November 2009, we may see the RO cog logo on its info page at some point. However, AIUI a Castle Technology licence will be required by AI/its distributors unless users are to download and install RISC OS themselves.
