US consumers now can also buy AMD’s Personal Internet Communicator (PIC), originally created to help poor people connect to the Internet in underdeveloped countries, such as India, Brazil, Mexico and Jamaica. It consists of a sealed fanless box based on a Geode chip and Windows CE. The PIC also includes an HD, USB ports, modem, headphone/microphone jacks, mouse and keyboard, but has no monitor. The equipment is sold through Radio Shack for USD 299.
