Yet another company you probably haven't heard of is jumping into the tiny laptop game. Allied Computers International plans to sell a notebook about the size of the Eee PC for about the same price in India.
The ACi ultra-mini laptop will weigh less than a kilogram, have a 7-inch display, a Via 1 GHz processor, 512MB RAM, 40GB hard drive, and a webcam, WiFi, and Bluetooth. The plan is to sell this model for about Rs 15,000 which is less than $400 US.
ACi is also planning a higher end model that will have 2GB of RAM and a 12-hour battery that functions with the help of solar power. That unit will cost Rs 22,000.

Poor show by the company. The laptop was officially launched in Feb 2008 this year and it was just a media hype and a publicity stunt. This laptop is nowhere to be seen in the market and even the company doesnt know when will it arrive(after taking to their customer support).
I guess that the company is waiting for prices of the components to come down so they can actully produce this at 14990/- :)
This laptop is nowhere to be seen in the market now.
