If you aren't married to brand new, eBay has at any given time 60+ 
compaq ipaq computers that can be had for under $50 and sometimes 
package deals of 10 at a time - check out item # 130034615886. 10 for 
$275.

These little machines make wonderful thin clients, and they are cheap 
enough that you can keep several spair ones.

Just my $0.02 -
