Hi
 
i wish to know what are the latest in Simputer?
 
Simputer was a great product some four years ago.
 
I am not sure if there is any new platform (Understand StrongArm 1110 based
discontinued.
 
It was well supported. Problem is  they do not publicize it...
 
It should be reacheable with an internet search..............
If you want to take this for an eval board,  the price is utterly low for its
content.
 
They have great staff at Bangalore who supported customers with a smile.
 
The product placement is Ameturish..... A good product without proper placement
and
publicity that it deserved.
 
A unique eval Board neatly pachaged and sold for a SONG  would be appropriate
market slogan.

I wonder if there is any need for Simputers any more. If there was,
then wouldn't they be selling?

Puzzled,
