No, I've not seen that one, but I have seen the little Elonex laptop stocked 
by Carphone Warehouse in the UK. Nice little machine I think, apparently it 
has 1G RAM and 80G hard drive, runs Ubuntu, and sells for GBP220. And I'm 
told that it is selling well.

Watch out, $soft!

PS Why do all of these machines run Ubuntu rather than Kubuntu? Is it the LTS 
issue?
