For close to that, you could easily get an ICS device from dealextreme.

For a $100 with no shipping cost you can get something with an A9.

They're email has bad wording then: "APC can be shipped worldwide at a price of $49."

I tried peordering just after I got the email but they were already out of stock supposedly.

It probably doesn't actually cost $49 dollars is why.

They just announced the preorder, might be worth waiting for suppliers to sell them on their behalf in the rest of the world.

It might be one of those under $49 for headline and customs (tax+duty)but we make the money on the $50 shipping.

But since you can buy 7" resistive tablets for <$70 inc shipping from all the online chinese stores this shouldn't be too difficult to bring in a screen and battery-less device at this price.
