A Acer Aspire One is 17300 at lamington rd. I agree on the poorman bit. The only way the poor can have access to computer is free computer (cybercafes) in slum areas. Laptops are a long way from the poor.
A handheld is more expensive than a cell phone. If you are talking of eepcs LG is Rs.17500 afaik.
Wonder what poorman would afford that.
What exactly do you have in mind?

Are there any organisations recycling old computers ? Not all people (rich or poor) have the same requirements fo their computers. Tiny Linux (http://tiny.seul.org/en/ ) can run on a 386 and has a full set of basic programs
