$98 netbooks

Don’t get your hopes up on specs. The computer has a 300 MHz processor, 128 MB of RAM, 2 GB of flash storage and a 7-inch, 800-by-480 resolution screen. The two-cell battery lasts for two hours on a charge. You’re basically getting an over sized smart phone in terms of raw power, but at a killer price.

For $98, plus $15 shipping, you can get a small, weak netbook dubbed the “Smartbook 7.”

It includes three USB ports, an SD card slot, built-in 802.11 a/b/g Wi-Fi, an ethernet jack, speakers, headphone out and microphone in. Plus, it’s available in five colors: Black, white, pink, red and green. A one-year warranty is included. The Smartbook 7 is being sold by a company I’ve never heard of, called ITA Computers.  They are the same one that made the Delstar 7-inch netbook, which K-Mart sold for $120 on Black Friday last year.

The name of the website is, 98dollarnetbook.com. 98dollarnetbook’s Web is fully-functional, but you can only  pay for the computer with PayPal.
