The World's First $99 Laptop Debuts Cherrypal Africa

Thursday, December 17, 2009


We've been hearing about the "$100 laptop"--a no-frills, low-power portable that meets the educational needs of children in developing nations--for a few years now.

Cherrypal has launched a $99 portable, the Cherrypal Africa, a "mini-netbook" built to bring Internet access to the world's poor.

At just $99, the new 7” Cherrypal Africa is one of the best buys in the world of electronics.

Whether you live in Ghana or Texas, the Cherrypal Africa is right for you!
