Earlier this week we got all excited about the Emtec Gdium EM-PC eeepc clone, the price looked great, it was available soon, and some thought had gone into the design.
Guess what? now that everyone is excited about thier product they are backpedaling as fast as they can: it now wont be available until September and the price isn't fixed yet (they already raised the price shown on the website from A$449 to A$579.
Sounds like a bait and switch to me.
