The $150 Laptop Is Still Alive
Last summer I wrote about the Medison Celebrity laptop, a.k.a. $150 laptop. No one has received the laptop yet. So the question still is: Is the $150 laptop real or a scam?
Not according to Medison. As you read this the Swedish company is busy redesigning their website and recently released the following statement:
Medison will start delivering the Medison Celebrity laptop during 2008.
[more to come]
Yes - WAUW - In the next 8-9 months you can expect to receive your $150 laptop, but thats not all. Medison have other big plans.

The Medison Celebrity webshop is also getting a face lift with new products and accessories. They also plan on new services like broadband connections, software downloads, support and service (?!)
The payment is still handled by 2Checkout, but who will distribute the cheap laptop?
Did you order one or perhaps you are considering it? Do you think Medison can deliver?

Hmmm I missed this. I thought this was going to be talking about the one laptop per child scheme.
I wouldn’t trust a $150 laptop but if I had a bunch of spare $$ laying around I suppose I would probably get one.
