Let it be Be & Compaq
APR-06-2000 - Note from the past: Product never made it to market!

Product Category: Internet Appliance

Combine the hardware from a well-known company that wants to be at the techno-edge again with the innovative software [approach] of Be Inc., and we might finally see a Net-PC (sorry, Web Appliance) for the home.

Compaq's Concept Study

The box has no hard disk and basically gives the user surfing capability and email service.

Availability: not released
Price/Cost: about $200


For further information, you have to go to CNET. Neither Be Inc. or Compaq say and show as much as CNET does!

Let's hope that this prototype doesn't have to go through a reality filter: features down, price up!
