No, they don't. They have a PICTURE of an ASUS EEEPC that they call
"their" $99 computer. Like Truman's "good 5-cent cigar," the $99 laptop is
a fantasy, at least so far.

Funny, I couldn't find any info on the web about the deposed Nigerian
prince that needs me to help him hide his millions, and the European
Lottery I won doesn't return my calls... ;-)

If it makes you feel better, the pictures of their "smartphones" they pimp
here are coincidentally pictures of other brands of smartphones costing
much more. IMO, the Nigerian Princes that keep e-mailing you have a better
chance of being legitimate than this "Jointech" outfit...
Save your $99... The EEE is ~$300 and does a snazzy job of handling basic
computing tasks. I've had mine a few months- it's a fun toy that makes a
nice bridge between a PDA and a "real" PC.
