I have seen the prototype but can't talk about it much yet. Assuming Astak and BeBook have the same device in the works. Jinke is quite protective about it. 3G is a bit problematic in that it is likely to add $50 to the cost and a subscription on top of that. At least from Astak the WiFi is more likely.
