The listing, Salton EP1 ePods Handheld Computer has ended.
A fellow Listian got this as a bonus when she won another tablet. She's not on Listia so much, so she let me auction this!
I did mess around with it a bit. It has some games, Microsoft Word, a cool touch-screen keyboard, a stylus, and has multiple USB connections.
Amazon talks about needing a subscription or service, but I think this would be perfect as something to type on wherever you need to.
