I just thought if it wouldn't be even better to give her an Amstrad Notepad, so she could even WRITE in the sun...

Yeah but then she'd press S,M,U and G at the same time and invoke the rath of the NC100's crappy keyboard decoding (http://www.systemed.net/blog/?p=150). ;)

As you can see she's just restarting it by holding function-stop while switching it on. She just did some Z80 programming in the bright sunlight and made a mistake. :)
A chap at work brought his in today. It's way better than I thought it'd be, and the screen is amazing. My iPad is uselss for reading books on it outdoors, especially if the sunlight is directly hitting the screen, but the Kindle doesn't have a problem.
Speaking of iPad's... why doesn't the CPC WIKI forum let me post messages from my iPad? Every other forum known to man allows it??
Steve Jobs probably doesn't approve of Amstrads, so he forbids his followers from using the Wiki.
