bala,
Following jason link's recommendation, try send an e-mail direct to simputer@csa.iisc.ernet.in
Some research dated back to last July
" Each Simputer will have a SA-110 StrongARM CPU (central processing unit), 32MB of DRAM, 16MB flash. It will not have a keyboard, and data can be fed into it through a stylus (pen-like computing device that sends out electronic signals) and a system called tap-a-tap devised by scientists here. "
You can find more from these at simputer web site under PRESS. Hope this helps.
