The Epods unit is going to be marketed the same way that the hugely popular George Foreman Grilling Machine was marketed, Infomercial and direct marketing.

The Epod is a pen based touch screen unit about the size of a magazine running Windows CE.

The Epods unit costs US$199 with a US$25 Internet access charge per month. We like the looks and features of the Epod, the PCMCIA slot could easily accept a wireless card making it the perfect unit for lazy days on the sofa. We do wish that you could purchase the unit separately without the monthly Internet access. Last, it is (unfortunately) running the wrong operating system.
