Solu, the pocket-sized computer, can be used as a stand-alone portable device or connected to a screen and keyboard at which point the handheld device is used as a controller.
Kristoffer Lawson, CEO of Solu Start-Up:
"The hardware that's on the devices is high end. I mean we're talking high resolution screen. We're talking battery, and we're talking a pretty good CPU, GPU. Premium material, it's made out of wood so the device price itself if you compare the price of an iPhone is actually pretty low, but the reason why people are so excited about this is that it is really the first no hassle sharing social collaborative computer out there…"
All data is encrypted and kept in protected locations to ensure privacy. Solu is also designed to work offline. Any changes made offline are synced as soon as the device goes online.
Solu has initially launched on Kickstarter at a price of 349 euros. The company aims to supply the devices direct to consumers from spring 2016.
