Hi,

He says with Excitement, "I would like to buy one of these puppies".

Anyone out there want to build them? They can run Squeak on top of Linux!
How long would it take you to build them and how much would they cost?

The itsy has two accelerometers on board allowing for a really cool user
interface. Rock and scRoll!

It would also be cool to get an Itsy or something like it running the
Crusoe processor. It's in the works, by someone, I bet. How soon?

Factoids are cool as well.
