Another possibility is the One Laptop Per Child XO-1 see G1G1 v2 to start on November 17 and cost $399.
Doesn't the OLPC have two modes for the screen? You can have color with a backlight and monochrome reflective for reading in sunlight, no? Seems like a great compromise. Not quite as sleek as some of the other options, though.
