Well, you probably know that 80 euros values ~ 250 reais, plus ~ 50
euros for shipping to brasil (150 reais) plus 60% import taxes (~ 150
reais)... well we got it for 550 reais... at this moment I can't afford
it. A very good salary where I live for an experienced developer is 2000
reais. At this moment I'm ruling my own company which is in a very bad
situation, so I'm not exactly receiving a monthly payment... I hope that
this doesn't exclude me as a debian user and developer...

Well, I have an Epson ActionNote 500C, with the detail that Epson is not
making notebooks anymore, so it's more difficult to find a memory card
for it.
