Not sure what is available on the far side of the pond

but something like this may be of use for this type of use

Exchange rates would put the low end prices I've seen around the $200 mark, but as it includes cell phone type access as well as Wi-Fi that could be a major pricing factor in the US

You can goto EBAY and buy a nice laptop from there with a 12 inch screen 1.2 gig+ dual core processor some (few) with win7 starter most are with win XP and 2 gigs of ddr2 ram, built in wifi.

Btw some of the ones on ebay in their stores still have a couple of months and some more than 6 months warranty left on them. a couple don't but most do you can check the service tag through dells site to see if it does. and alot are 199 usd some are between 215 to 230 usd.. i know a guy who buys these all the time installs windows 7 upgrades the ram a little if it isnt 4 already and puts in a larger hard drive and resells them for 500 more.
