The inaugural function will be held at the Bangabandhu International Conference Centre at 10:30am.
The laptop branded as “Doel” with four different models priced at Tk 10,000, Tk 13,500, Tk 22,000 and Tk 26,000 are made by the state-run Telephone Shilpa Sangstha (TSS) in collaboration with 2M Corporation Ltd, Dhaka and TFT Technology, Penang, Malaysia.
A telecommunication ministry official said the date for marketing of the laptop has not been fixed. “At first, several thousand laptops would be supplied to various government institutions for public services,” the official said.
He also said in future, the government has a plan to export the laptops after meeting the local demand.

It's neither a technological breakthrough, nor a cheap laptop. Well I will appreciate the effort, if it reaches the students in mass scale at an affordable price. Would you buy a TSS android with pentium processor with 27000? It's not a cheap price. One can buy a better laptop or reputed brand with this price.
